Quote of the Day - on possible sea level rises
Thursday, March 29, 2007 at 09:36AM "If all ice on the earth melted, the level of the oceans would rise by 64 meters. Many coastal cities would be under water, and so would the Netherlands, a significant part of which lies below sea level. However, the Dutch and the rest of the planet may rest assured: this hypothetical catastrophe could not take place anytime within the next thousand years."
--Nikolai Osokin, Russian Academy of Sciences, RIA Novosti, 27 March 2007
