It’s no fun when I agree with an article, but one minor point. I don’t find the minuscule amount of sea level rise credible. Exactly how does one accurately measure such a small change in something so large? That is a very difficult problem. Statistically it’s possible, but there would be a confidence interval. Furthermore, the number of samples taken would be many to have a high degree of confidence. How is that done with changing tides, wind, coastal construction, and other factors? (Especially when the change is so small) Just take a look at maps from every city on both US coasts. Nearly all cities have grown into the sea using landfill or they have shrunk due to erosion not caused by sea level rise. If I recall correctly, Miami has some of that happening. Lastly, I can almost guarantee that proxy measurements are used for older dates. No one was measuring sea level rise before all these climate frauds started getting grants. Proxy measurements are notoriously inaccurate and should not be compared to current measurements as different measurements methods makes it virtually impossible to perform statistical analysis. (The same is true when measuring ice sheets and glaciers.
That is close enough for me.
