I like when they use Venice as an illustration of the sea level already rising, as though the ocean can rise there without rising here. Pretty stupid stuff, batted about by losers who haven’t had a cause since the war in Vietnam ended...

The sea is not rising as you said. Venice is sinking because of water being pumped out of the ground for use in agriculture and drinking on the mainland. This is a very common when large amounts of water are pumped out of the ground.

I know the sea is not rising; Venice is sinking because it is built on a swamp (like former Giants Stadium up here in our Meadowlands, sinking a few inches each year).
