Disproving Global Warming

[Jaged]

I have a theory that global warming is a hoax, and I have devised an experiment to proove it. Now I can't proove that the earth is or is not warming, but I belive I can proove that the the theory that the polar ice caps are melting and causing the oceans to rise is false.

Take a glass, fill it with water, put some ice cubes in it. Mark where the water line is with tape and cover the glass to prevent evaporation.

My theory is that the amount that the ice sticks up above the water is roughly equal to the amount the ice expands when it is frozen. That would mean that when the ice melted, the water level would stay the same, because the ice shrinking in volume when it melted would counteract the ice that is currently above the water line. In theory this would also be true on a global scale with the polar ice caps being really big ice cubes in a really big glass.

I made my little contraption and am still waiting to see if my theory holds true.

I encourage other people to try this and see if they get the same results as I get.

I will post what happens when the ice melts.
