2 days ago xtnyoda reported the nonsense of the "submerged island" due to "anthropogenic global warming" fraudulent claims... today there is an excellent article with more real information... the island turns out to have been nothing more than a sandbar.

Climate Change Fraud article
....Note in the map below that the island was a river estuary, meaning it wasn’t made out of rock as claimed. It was made out of mud and sand. From Wikipedia:
The island was situated only two kilometers from the mouth of the Hariabhanga River. The emergence of the island was first discovered by an American satellite in 1974 that showed the island to have an area of 2,500 sq meters (27,000 sq ft). Later, various remote sensing surveys showed that the island had expanded gradually to an area of about 10,000 sq meters (110,000 sq ft) at low tide, including a number of ordinarily submerged shoals. The highest elevation of the island had never exceeded two meters above sea level.

The AP claim (probably from Seth Borenstein) is that global warming induced sea level rise has submerged the island, and that is complete nonsense.

After a while these alarmists get rather boring... they look for something "new" to report... and in the effort for the new and intimidating they become ever more ridiculous.

Well... if this is the way they want to be remembered... so be it.
