One fifth of human kind depend on fish to live. Today now 70 percent of the fish stock are over-exploited. According to FAO if we don't change our system of fishing the main sea resources will be gone in 2050. We don't want to believe what we know.

All handling by IPCC of the Sea Level questions have been done in a way that cannot be accepted and that certainly not concur with modern knowledge of the mode and mechanism of sea level changes.
Nils-Axel Morner

Praise the sea, on shore remain.
John Florio

Many a calm river begins as a turbulent waterfall, yet none hurtles and foams all the way to the sea.
