Where will you be in 2100?

A group of US scientists have warned that sea-level increases this century resulting from global warming should be higher than what a UN panel on climate change estimated recently. They said that the rise by 2100 should be in meters, and not between 18 and 59 centimeters as the UN Panel published in a February report that predicts sea levels increasing. Be afraid, be very afraid.

They do not say how much this rise is due to human activity, so they're playing safe. Thing is, they have the guts to say this knowing that they won't be around to see what actually happens. Come to think of it, I wouldn't be around either.
