Ocean level rising has been replaced by ocean level change. Possibly, you didn’t get the memo.

Convenient how these stories appear while Ivanka is trying to keep us in the stupid Paris “treaty”.

But, but, but ... I thought the seas were rising! Of course it is, silly ... in Florida and California. But that rising water has to come from somewhere, so the evil global warming gremlins are stealing it from Ireland.
So, see? Global Warming causes rising AND lowering of ocean water, just like it causes high and low temperature extremes. Try and keep up.

>>But after high spring tides last month, locals found that the Atlantic Ocean had returned the sand.
How do they know it’s the same sand?

Certainly a poorly worded statement.
It is not the same sand but that is sure how it reads.
