They keep saying that sea levels are rising an' all this. It's nowt to do with the icebergs melting, it's because there's too many fish in it. Get rid of some of the fish and the water will drop. Simple. Basic science.

About This Quote

This is a classic example of someone who can't be bothered with facts. The amount of water in the sea is rising because the Earth is warming. The rising levels of water in the sea are also due to melting ice. As the ice melts it adds water to the sea and this in turn pushes up the sea level. It's not rocket science, but it does take a little bit of effort to understand what's going on here.
