Just because life here on Earth depends on water, doesn't mean that there can't be some other form of life that doesn't need it.
Ok, there may be too many negatives in there to make much sense (outside of my mind anyways), but what I'm trying to say is this: There could be some other form of life that doesn't need water.
Proportionally, it's like saying someone who turned just 16 is the same age as someone who is just about seven months older, or someone who just turned twenty is the same age as someone who is about 9 months older, which people do all the time.
The increased heat won't just cause ice to melt and the oceans to rise, it also increases evaporation and the ability of the air to retain water. The ocean's may rise, but not as much as everyone will think. How could there be more precipitaion in many area's without increased evaporation and humidity? Water is in a constant cycle and it can't just come from nowhere; it's the Law of Conservation of Matter.

Na, you just need to wear lead-lined pants until it's over. If you want to have kids that is.
I really don't see what all the fuss is about. It's nothing compared to my router. My signal goes around the world twice before reaching my laptop.
