Sea level are reported to have risen 5” in the past century. I find even that claim questionable (technical reasons, which I won’t go into), but if that’s the most the alarmists can claim, I don’t feel sorry for anyone whose property is under water from a five inch change in water levels.
I say with the greatest confidence that anyone has developed yet, in the history of mankind (or before that as well) that there is much BS passed as fact.
There, it’s done and must be true as it’s on the internet.
WHO ARE YOU TO ARGUE WITH ME?
ahh, better now. sleeep.
Okay if they were written in MS word? :)

It’s too bad the Maldives haven’t disappeared.
The atolls that the US Marines and the Japs fought over are still there. I think some of them were only a few feet above sea level.
Another flood on the way? We are all going to die.
I seem to remember he bought the beach front property in Cali for his ex/estranged tipper. Pre-planning?
World sealevel was higher by a over a yard during the Medieval Warming period. That must explain why everyone died and civilization ended at that time. ;’)
“A group of scientists says it has now reconstructed the history...”
Stopped reading there. The project probably started with “what numbers are you looking for boss?” and the ‘scientists’ worked back from there.
Exactly. I came across a late 1600’s land survey of a large tidal island near us. Max elevation 3 ft. Comparing it to GoogleMaps, its shoreline is essentially unchanged over 320 years.
Maybe we’re building too many heavy buildings and roads and it’s making the continents sink.
After the oceans rise, you might be only 99 miles, 5279 feet from the ocean.
If researcher Bob Kopp is proven wrong, what kind of “Kopp Out” will he have?
Once most of Australia was a great inland sea. Now it is a desert.
Things change and there’s not a damned thing you can do about it except don’t buy a house too close to the beach/waterline. PS: Hurricanes will get you long before rising waters.
I’m buying land in western Nevada now so when the big San Andreas/Mendocino Fault quakes take most of California down and out, I’ll have prime waterfront property to sell. Now, that is known as “long term investing”.
Has it raced on up to .0001 inches per decade?
Welcome to the edge. We’re about 10 miles from the state line off of 395 north. Home values should skyrocket. Of course the climb down to the beach may be a little challenging. Seems to me that there were a lot of inland seas in NV as well once upon a time. :>)
It’s moving almost like the star wars clip of jumping into hyper speed/drive or whatever it was.
I may start to believe the seas are rising fast when large numbers of “progressives” start moving out of all relatively low lying areas like NYC.
Uh, no. Leave them there. PUHLEEEEZ!
