claim: By 2100 the seas will rise another 6 inches or so—a far cry from Al Gore’s alarming numbers
evidence: Sea level rise for the next century ( 2100 ) could be between 30 cm ( 12 in ) and 100 cm ( 39 in ) and temperature shifts of a mere 0.05–0.1 °C in the deep sea are sufficient to induce significant changes in species richness and functional diversity.
