When the polar ice caps melt, sea level will rise. That’s happened earlier in the history of the world, and it appears it will happen again.
In this edition of Radio Curious, the first of a two part series on global warming and sea level rise, we visit with Peter D. Ward, a paleontologist and professor of biology and earth and space sciences at the University of Washington in Seattle. He is the author of “The Flooded Earth: Our Future in a World Without Ice Caps,” in which he describes expected condition in 2050, 2300 and 2500.

The interview with Professor Peter D. Ward, was recorded on August 2, 2010, from his office in Seattle, Washington.
The first interview begins with a description of what will happen when the level of the sea rises.
The second interview begins with a discussion of why, in the face of rather clear evidence, there continues to be a denial of global warming.
The books Peter Ward recommends are:
“An Inconvenient Truth,” by Al Gore and “Weather Makers,” by Tim Flannery and any book by Tim Flannery.
