I've just listened to ?The life scientific? (R4). Jim Al-Khalili let himself down badly.
On the subject of sea level rises due to global warming he said, "That?s very scary. A metres of sea level rise [per century] would put most of England under water".
Rubbish. Three metres by 2300AD does not mean ?most of England? would be under water at all. Low lying areas would be flooded but otherwise the coastline would remain broadly the same. And this would be in 300 years time.
