The ultimate measure will be when the seas stop rising.

The other data is interesting but since the 80’s, under President Reagan, we have known the earth was warming by the rise of the seas. You can’t fake it and you can’t change the data because sea level can be measured all over the world by so many different groups.

Run for the hills!! BTW, what data are you basing that on?

Actually, it is hard to measure, because the change is so small.

And it can be faked. If you measure it relative to a piece of land that's sinking, it seems bigger than it is is. Or you can knock down a tree on low-lying land to falsely claim that it was drowned.

It’s not as easy as you might think. You need to make your measurements relative to a specific measure... How do you keep your measuring stick still? The truth is there is only one measurer of global temperature... and there is an 800-year lag. The oceans expanding today have as much to do with the little ice age as they do with current temperatures.

And all over the ocean by remote sensing (radar altimetry).
