Climatologist Dr.Judith Curry Hits BS Button On Sea Level Rise Fear Mongering - The Lid
"Good News! We’re not going to drown. 
At least not from the sea level rising. 
That’s what the scare tactics of those pushing the climate change hypothesis keep telling us
Writing on her website, Dr. Judith Curry hit the BS button on the sea level rise claims pushed by the scaremongers.

The available evidence shows the following:

• Sea level was apparently higher than present at the time of the Holocene Climate Optimum (~ 5000 years ago), at least in some regions.
• Tide gauges show that sea levels began to rise during the 19th century, after several centuries associated with cooling and sea level decline. Tide gauges also show that rates of global mean sea level rise between 1920 and 1950 were comparable to recent rates.
• Recent research has concluded that there is no consistent or compelling evidence that recent rates of sea level rise are abnormal in the context of the historical records back to the 19th century that are available across Europe.

She adds that any sea level rises we’ve seen have had nothing to do with mankind...

She reminds us to remember that the real reason for predicting the sea level rises is “providing support for the hypothesis of human-caused climate change.”...
