Stating the obvious . beach is better . Facts seem to indicate still at a big loss .
Facts and figures are easily manipulated. Yes, the data since 2000 shows a fairly sharp decline in beach. What if you go back to 1995? 1985?Quote:

I have been to negril at least 10 times since may 2012 and the beach has come back in a huge way.
Good
great news,soon come
So much for Al Gore's predictions ...... 1) "The Arctic will be ice free by 2013" and 2) "melting ice could release enough water to cause at 20-foot rise in sea level in the near future.”
Did I miss something? My waterfront property in Florida is still here and I don't have to swim to the mail box in the morning for the paper. I guess sometimes facts and common sense get in the way "An Inconvenient Truth".
Maybe Gore should have gotten the Academy Award for Best Comedy as it was on par with the best of the Monte Python movies. And made as much sense.
Not possible!!!!!
Sea level is rising so what I see is impossible
Negril Beach is as wide as I've seen it but I've only seen it for 45 years...Impossible
I live on a saltwater canal with exit to the sea (sea level...) ...been here 15 years. My bulkhead tells me that the sea level hasn't changed......Impossible
But what do I know...must be impossible..
BTW...NEPA don't fix something that isn't broken
