#1 Rising levels of winter rain

I'm surprised anyone noticed.

Since 1862, the sea off Aberdeen has risen by an average of 0.66mm a year.

And the reason is the land (around Aberdeen) is sinking as a result of isostatic readjustment. Were the sealevel truly rising, it would rise everywhere.

Yet more systematic deception, peddling alarmist claptrap to the ignorant.

#2 The comments section after this article is almost as informative as the article itself. Apparently, Scotland has just as large a "blame oil capitalists for having an agenda but ignore the economic incentive for scientists studying GW to keep their public sector grants rolling in by fiddling with the science" component to its populace as the U.S. does.

#4 It doesn't matter BP. The wheels are about to fall off the whole global warming bandwaggon as the southern oceans are abruptly cooling. No one really understands why, but we are already experiencing record cold here in Oz.

#6 "The wheels are about to fall off the whole global warming bandwaggon as the southern oceans are abruptly cooling. No one really understands why Bush has been implicated, but and we are already experiencing record cold here in Oz."

Fixed it.

#7 Storms and drier soils can be expected to increase landslides

So how do the soils get drier, what with the increasing rainfall levels?

#8 Scotland gets it’s own parliament and you don’t expect a serious increase in hot air?
