America and Asia 'will join up'

Researchers say most of the world's continents will merge somewhere over the Pacific 'ring of fire' in 50-200 million years

We don't need wait millions of years, the next glaciation period will be enough to join Asia with America with sea level falling.

Sea level isn't falling. It's actually rising due to the glaciers melting. Something environmentalists are worried about because of the inevitable flooding and not to mention glaciers disappearing, so before this even happens, I'm predicting that the continents will already look quite different than what we have now.

I spoke about next glaciation which may occure for the next thousands years not the today global warming.

Yeah, but that's still likely to have an effect on what the next one does or what the continents will end up doing.
