Absurd. The prediction of a 4-degree increase in global temperatures in the next 100 years is ridiculous, and that kind of an increase in sea level is greatly overblown.

... the more I learned, the more conscious did I become of the fact that I was ridiculous. So that for me my years of hard work at the university seem in the end to have existed for the sole purpose of demonstrating and proving to me, the more deeply engrossed I became in my studies, that I was an utterly absurd person.

Global warming isn't a prediction. It is happening.

On one level it is humorous, ridiculous and absurd. On another level it is scary.

One can hardly imagine a more ridiculous and absurd interpretation.

If temperatures continue to increase in the tropical North Atlantic, many of the coral reefs there (and their ecosystems) may be affected by bleaching. Also, since hurricane development does depend on sea surface temperatures, the conditions necessary for hurricanes to form may be accentuated.
