Hey, anything is possible. This is not the first %26quot;Global Warming%26quot; period the earth has gone through. In fact, there have been many evolutions of our planet over the millenia. Catalysmic activity should never be discounted. This is how the living planet is.
There are many books that discuss massive change in Earth%26#039;s recorded lifetime. Immanuel Velikovsky, and others, has explored this for over 60 years. Here%26#039;s some of his titles: Worlds in Collision (1950), Ages in Chaos (1952), Earth In Upheaval (1955)

• I sure hope so... I hate hippies...
• rising sea levels will put extra pressure on faults under and near the sea, but extra rain we know already triggers quakes in the s.a. fault, so you might be lucky, the two effects might cancel each other out....
  i think your big problem is going to be water supply. the last time it was this warm, (in, yes, the medieval %26#039;warm period%26#039;) there were century-long droughts in south west u.s.a.
• Velikovsky, wow! I haven%26#039;t heard that name in a long time. Don%26#039;t forget George Adamski and Wilhelm Reich!
• Wow! A massive ice shelf %26quot;collapsed%26quot;? I think not. It just separated. But no one can link this to AGW.
• The %26#039;BIG%26#039; one - It%26#039;s not if, but when....
  
  That story has been going around for 50 years.
  and nothing has happened.
  
  We shouldn%26#039;t repeat history by falling for the same myth of %26quot;global warming%26#039;.
