Oh no! The TCs are going to drown!

If the Ice Caps melt, most of the Turkish occupied region of Cyprus is going under water ...

As does all of Famagusta, much of Larnaca and some of Limassol. So it's not so silver the lining. As they seem to get to keep Kyrenia!!!

We don't have a water shortage, we no longer rely on the rain water, we are now self sufficient.

I think Fly Ho was referring to the Turks boasting that they were going to construct a pipeline from Turkey to Cyprus to supply the occupied islanders with water - a comment which I thought was funny. :D

Anyway, the coastline of Cyprus is likely to rise by about 30 cm from what I can gather and most of the free areas would be little affected. Maybe some Russians will find they are closer to the beach than they anticipated. :P

Nope, it's our occupied north that is most likely to be flooded leaving only the Kyrenia mountain range and of course, we know TCs hate mountains! (Mountain Turks is a derogatory term of theirs for 'foreign' or Kurd).

I thought you picked up my tongue-in-cheek topic precisely. Burst out laughing at your connective observation. :D
