My favorite, that I've seen a few times, is that "The Pacific Ocean will rise 20 cm over the next century".

Setting aside the fact that 20 cm is a little less than 8 inches, and we should be able to figure something out in 100 years to deal with it....

.... that's 2mm/year. How would you even know? Heck, you can't measure the water in your bathtub accurately to within 2mm. They're worried - gravely worried - about a 2mm rise over a massive ocean?

Fools, all.

And even if there is sea rise, what is ti due to? The coast of Finland is GROWING, the sea RECEDING, the land rising. Ditto for the Arctic Islands of Canada. It’s called “Ice Age Rebound.”

WHERE does that water go????????????????????????

“The Pacific Ocean will rise 20 cm over the next century”.

Oh yeah, all the ocean calculations are a real hoot!

Like calculating global ocean temperatures from buckets hauled up onto cargo ships...to 1/10 of a degree!

Or “adjusting” the sea level data up by .3mm per year, because the ocean floor is sinking....
