WERE ALL GONNA DIE!!!! In 11 years.
Answer: because this isn't about sea-level rise, or coastal cities. It about implementing COMMUNISM by other means.
less than 8 inches....and that’s if it happens.
Why were sea levels rising for centuries before the industrial revolution? Might there be other causes? (Not considered an acceptable question to ask, I guess.)
According to “calculations” (lacking evidence), in the last 100 years, sea level has risen between 4” and 8”.
So, Mr. Peter, where is this temperature increase from the huge amounts of carbon that have been released the past 50 years?
By 2300? Im sure that was some real accurate science for sure.
Learn to swim.
When it lowers beachfront property prices, then I might give this some consideration. Until then, they can STFU

King Canute
A poem by Paul Perro
There once was an old king called King Canute,
He was a kind old man, and wise to boot.
He was troubled though, he thought it was odd,
That his subjects treated him like a god.
One day a man said You are a great king
Ruler of everyone and everything.
King Canute looked at his subject and laughed.
He said Not everything, dont be daft.
I couldnt command the wind not to blow,
I couldnt command a tree not to grow.
I’m not in charge of the birds or the bees,
The sun or the moon, the skies or the seas.
Canute was now starting to get quite vexed
The subject just stood there looking perplexed.
The king called the servants together, then
He bellowed out an order to his men:
“Pick up my throne and take it to the beach,
There is a lesson that I want to teach.
So they carried his throne down to the ocean
Followed by crowds, there was quite a commotion.
Canute sat on the throne facing the sea
And spoke to it with great authority.
I am your king and I give this command -
Stay where you are, do not come on this sand
But the sea didnt listen to the king.
No-one can stop the tide from coming in.
As the waves kept advancing up the shore
The wise old king tried to halt them once more.
I am the King, you must do as I say,
I command you to go back, right away.
But the waves still came, right up to his feet.
Canute just shrugged and admitted defeat.
He faced the crowd, and he sternly outcried,
“Not even a king can control the tide.
I did my best, but no, I came up short.
Im just not as powerful as you thought.
If today’s kids lack the wisdom of the old poems that we learned as kids, perhaps they could look at real data - data not subject to NASA/GISS “adjustments”. Real estate prices tell us what people believe when they vote with their money. If the wealthy elitists believed in this nonsense, they would not buy beachfront property on soon-to-be underwater property by the ocean, but in fact those prices are rising faster than the prices for other real estate. People who put their money on this are not worried that the seas will rise . . .
. . . despite the hysterical predictions of fearmongers: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/science/will-you-be-underwater-theres-a-map-for-that
Sea levels have been rising for the last 1,000 years, and are rising no faster now than hundreds of years ago.
Equally historic, very natural and forever ongoing is subsidence along the coastal shelf. That too is a natural process born by the geography of the coastal shelf and the oceans actions on it and against the coastline itself.
Few native American settlements sat right on the coasts. Over many thousands of years they learned to give nature its coasts, and set their settlements inland from coastal erosion and to gain protection from storms that came along the coasts. Modern humans ignore that and then want taxpayers to pay for their folly.
“...A separate study published in August suggested that sea ice in the Arctic could completely disappear through September each summer if average global temperatures increase by as little as 2 degrees Celsius...”
So that would put the Arctic above freezing every summer????
How many cubic miles of silt do the world’s rivers dump into the ocean every year?
Just curious.
“We can’t point to any rise in the past forty years, but we’ll keep saying it is”
The original estimate was 20 cm PER century. Now it's 20 cm per 300 years?
These people need to get together to coordinate their narrative for consistency.
we are still warming from the end of the last ice age, so yeah... sea levels will rise a bit. It has nothing to do with human or
LMAO co2
Really? So you are going to sell your oceanfront property for cheap?
Didn’t think so. Hypocrites.
Pffft just invest in shipyards and boat building companies.
I just want to know how soon we’ll have beachfront property here in Fresno?
We should CONDEMN and RED TAG ALL Private Property within 5 miles of the Ocean to protect the people living there.
