Man Made Climate Change - Johann Hari talks bollocks

Not a sheep: Man Made Climate Change - Johann Hari talks bollocks
The Independent has an article by Johann Hari that is almost amusing it is so badly researched. Apparently Man Made Climate Change "will drown London and New York and Lagos and Kinshasa too". Let's see London, New York and Lagos are pretty much at sea-level being ports so IF the sea levels did rise dramatically they could flood. Kinshasa however, despite being almost on the River Congo, sits on a plain between 918 and 1,148 feet above sea level and so is not a great candidate for severe flooding even under the most pessimistic/crap forecasts. Read the rest of the article, then read the comments from readers.
