Default Newsnight, The Pentagon and Global Warming

Surely the rising sea levels on those Islands was due to the melting of
their ice sheets ,which is occuring all over the pacific due to GW ?

I remember a Newsnight report from John Simpson 3-4 years ago

concerning
the
plight of some islands in the Pacific under threat from sea level

rises.
It
was all hand wringing stuff you know "aren't well evil in the west"

etc
etc.....
Well you know what? For all that BBC middle-class lefty guilt and

thrashing
with birch leaves, the Islands are still there and nothings changed.


Still there after 3-4 years?
I'm sure the report wasn't suggesting their disappearance in so short
a time span.
