That is a good one....
When my boss, who is a big global warmist (or was. I haven’t heard a whole lot recently), talks about sea-level rise and the endangerment of coral reefs, I ask him what the coral did after the end of the last glacial period when temperatures increased by many degrees C over a few decades and sea levels rose meters per decade instead of centimeters per century. If they kept up with a 100 meter rise in sea levels, they can handle anything they’re experiencing now.
