"But here goes.

The evidence shows that sea levels r not really rising. Data from GPS satellites and stuff. They have risen a very tiny amount in the last 20 or 30 years. Nothing to get fixated about. Can't remember the exact amount but summat like 5mm in 30 years.
Loads of myths in the Al Gore vid. He's in the climate change business now."
