Editor's Note: TDG's Jim Motavalli is back on Fox Business News, as Neil Cavuto tries to take him to task for the latest report of sea level rise predictions as a result of Antarctic ice melt. As before, Cavuto's attitude can be best summed up as head-in-the-sand energy and environmental policy.

As Jim points out, climate scientists are not saying sea level isn't going to rise dangerously over the next century or so, they're simply revising somewhat the specific contributions caused by a particular Antarctic ice sheet.
