What Scientists?

This is a complete scare story. Which "scientists" are predicting three feet of ocean rise? Where is the opposing viewpoints? Why has the sea been rising while the climate cooled for the past ten years? I'm disappointed in how unbalanced this story is from U.S. News.

Responsible People Say "May" when describing future events. Science ain't religion and it lacks the certitudes of a religion. No faith involved, just evidence.
