Free Manteel Blueprints

Island sinks into the sea!

The propaganda and fear mongering continues.

Well, I had a similar message, almost as expected.
match the start of the Earth Hour, an island sinks into the sea and the cause is, of course, loudly touted global warming.

This is scaremongering at its best.

There is no excuse! Man is responsible. That at least, they want us chisel with the hammer to mind and believe most of us still are.

But who are a little bit about the island is to provide quickly discovered that the island of Iceland or New South Talpatti Moore called Iceland, is still very young. It was created by the "Bhola Cyclone" in 1970. Strong wind and waves have shaped the island.

on the multitude of cards, you can see also that the island is located in the Ganges Delta. Exactly where the Harinbhanga River is flowing into the sea. The island is not only the tides of the sea exposed (which often are at river mouths especially strong), but also the constant flow of river. Equal right next to the island are the Sundarbans, a nature reserve which is home to include the Bengal tiger. The whole area is just so with rivers übersät.

Wikipedia schreibt dazu:  

"Die Sundarbans (schöner Wald) ist der größte Mangrovenwald der Erde. Er steht in einem tiefgelegenen Mündungs- und Überschwemmungsgebiet von vier großen Flüssen, die abgeregnete Niederschläge von den Südhängen des Himalaya sowie saisonal bedingt große Wassermassen der Monsun-Zone ins Meer abführen. Das ca. 6000 km² große artenreiches Ökosystem  ist weit verzweigt und schwer zugänglich. Insbesondere weil die Deltagebiete  von Ganges, Brahmaputra  und Meghna  hier ineinander übergehen."


So I hold:

flood area, rainfall,
floods, monsoon zone!
