Today they are 25-30 metres above sea level."</i><br /><br />Just think, if the 'global warming' happens as predicted, they will only be 20 metres above sea level! Getting a bit closer to the levels of 3000 years ago. <br /><br />I wonder -- would some people say that's closer to the sea levels of the pre-industrial world, before nasty man caused the sea levels to drop 25-30 metres? Just wondering, with tongue-in-cheek :)Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14797317910988407423noreply@blogger.com
