Much is made of ocean volume increasing as temperature increases, but won’t the earth’s crust also expand if it is heated?
Seems to me that the bucket will expand at the same rate as the water in it.
Imagine how frightened these people would be if the sea level was dropping 6’. coral reefs, harbors, their beach front property, etc. would be in peril.

The oceans were about 20 to 30 feet higher about 7,000 years ago than they are today. Another ice age should be starting any time and when that happens watch sea level drop about 400 to 500 feet where the edge of the continental shelves are located.

I read somewhere the other day (probably on here, since this is where I get ALL my real news) that it isn't so much that the sea levels are rising as much as the shoreline is sinking in some areas. And, wouldn't the levels be changing at the same rate pretty much everywhere, if the water was truly "increasing?" If water seeks its own level (something I learned in grade school science), wouldn't this be in effect?
