I live just a few feet above sea level, and I live near one of the measurement stations.

But the data stopped at 1994.

I await a clear, easy to understand (and believe) explanation showing that mankind is causing the climate to be warmer, hence melting the polar ice caps, and making the seas rise.

I already know the planet got colder, hotter, colder BEFORE there was enough human activity to have caused it.

Water expands when it freezes. So if the ice melts the sea level will drop.

Every working adult who checks the prognostications from the "weather predictors" knows that those said "predictors" cannot tell us with any real accuracy what will happen 10 minutes from now, 10 miles from here.

But using the same hardware and software they claim the ability to "know" what will be happening over the entire planet 100 years from now.

Sure.
