If the sea bed is sinking and the land is not rising,
we are in big trouble.
“If the sea bed is sinking and the land is not rising,

What you said in humor is very correct geologically. When vast dry basins such as the Mediterranean Sea and Black Sea filled, geologically quite recently, the surrounding land masses did rise as the seabed sank due to the influx of water and weight. Pretty simple physics actually.
As you said we would be in big trouble.
