Then currents may swing the berg to rotate counter clockwise and pivot the berg south, and away from the island’s south coast. I agree with Garry. Let’s put some Ragu sauce on the spaghetti tracks and see what happens. I don’t think my car idling in rush hour traffic gave birth to this berg.

(And as stupid as that sounds I have actually heard that exact argument from you know who and you know where)

Perhaps the berg could ground several miles away (assuming the ocean is deep relatively close to the island; I haven’t looked into that). As it melts over the years, it could be pushed closer to the island.

But nature will adapt as it always does, promoting some species, harming others, and having no net effect on others.

But of course the mainstream science media only considers the harmful possibilities, and exaggerates them to the max.

I bet the ecology of the area is well adapted to this happening.

But hey why not call it global warming even if its happened for as long as the island has been there.

Somebody go warn Rep. Hank Johnson!

I’ll bet he expects it to sink like the Titanic.
