If they accept your invitation can you invite me too?
In the meantime, I hope your critical economic situation will not be worser because of the Spanish crisis and may be less tourism. We know it is safe to come to EL HIERRO.

]]> Comment on Arctic Melt Raises Sea Levels and Reinforces Global Warming by Tom Mallard http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/blogs/earthmatters/2011/06/14/arctic-melt-raises-sea-levels-and-reinforces-global-warming/#comment-12227 Tom Mallard Wed, 15 May 2013 18:58:54 +0000 http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/blogs/earthmatters/?p=50#comment-12227 This page has a chart with Pinatubo’s eruption to put volcanic CO2 in context to our hyper-greenhousing the planet: http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/GISSTemperature/giss_temperature4.php

We do have a chance to reduce CO2 with reforestation but going the wrong way on that with tar sands and Amazon deforestation, “New World post-pandemic reforestation helped start Little Ice Age, say Stanford scientists”: http://phys.org/news148817103.html

Haven’t seen a model predicting only 1m/3ft by 2100 for some time, with the rapid change of the last decade in the Arctic & recent modeling is getting more accurately constrained by geography, my own take is to plan on 1m sea-level rise in 50-years, 3m/10ft in a century from today until we turn stop burning fossil fuels and stop the heavy deforestation.

Won’t be this week so Plan A is in effect …

Could I have permission to use them in the classroom with students?
Thank you for all you efforts and for the incredible pictures you have taken. Wish I had been there. But at least we have this. So incredible.
