Island Actually Disappears Due to Climate Change

If you have ever doubted that the ocean is rising, this may surprise you.  A small island off the northeast coast of Japan is now completely underwater. That’s right! It’s gone because of the rising sea level. The Japanese Coast Guard will confirm this in the next few weeks.

When I was a kid, we could walk down the beach during low tide in Malibu twice per day. That was a given — every 12 hours. But over the past few years, the tide has risen so high that there have been months when you couldn’t walk down the beach at all. GASP!

Not sure why this isn’t making frontpage news. We have a CO2 problem and it’s not going away on its own.
