If the oceans are rising why aren't we seeing this worldwide on ALL coastlines?

How can the ocean rise in one part of the world and not rise in other parts?

Doesn't make sense. Sounds like they're doing their typical cherrypicking of bad scenarios here and there and trying to catastrophize it.

Exactly. These people are dumber than doorknobs. The elites just want to snap up coastal property at bargain prices.

Archimedes Principle be damned.

I literally had a family member ask a friend in Florida about it…because they understood it was a particular problem in Florida.

SMDH.

There are two processes, subsistence and sea level rise. In the Southeast United States subsistence, the lowering of land level due to settling of soil, aggravates the effect of sea level rise. Sea level rise is real and has been going on since the end of the last ice age. The Thames was once a tributary of the Rhine, their confluence was in what is now the North Sea.

Subsistence is especially bad around New Orleans which is built on silt. Places like Nantucket, Marthas Vineyard and Cape Cod are little more than glacial moraine, piles of sand 600 feet high deposited by glaciers during the last ice age. The sea is gradually reclaiming them.

Agreed.....

It's called Pascal's Principle.....

Basic high school physics for anyone who attended class on that particular day......
