Your a "tragic" hasbeen...:-)

Sorry.

Foxy,
It was shown years ago that the Climate scientists were changing the data and placing instruments in locations where there was artificial warming.

Why should they be believed now. Perhaps they have found a new morality, like religious priests. If the predictions were correct the Maldives should now be under water and islands in the Pacific abandoned. Poor old Bangladesh better learn to swim.

There are many reasons why sea-level may not go up or down as predicted:

* . the Australian tectonic plate is moving under the Pacific Plate to the north and up-lifting in the south - hence the cliffs along the Great Australian Bight are rising out of the sea. Of course, if there was sea-level rise, this might mean that the sea-level rise along the north coast is out-pacing the sea-level drop along the south coast. I don't know if this is so ? How do you actually measure sea-level rise, given twice-daily tides, swells, etc ?

* . after the Ice Age finished ten or twelve thousand years ago, the areas of Australia covered by ice back then would have slowly re-bounded - say in Tasmania and Victoria (and probably NSW). So we should expect to see what looks like a drop in sea-level along those coasts.

* . sea-levels rise in South Australia twice a day by up to a metre ! At this rate, the entire state will be swamped by 2100.

Sea-level rise seems to have been about half an inch around European coasts over the last century, taking all (?) factors into account. At that rate, the Maldives will be swamped in barely a thousand years. And Fiji in only about a million years.

On the other hand, some Pacific islands are slowly rising out of the sea and growing in area, given the natural building of coral reefs, as pointed out ( I think ?) by Darwin.

Dear HenryL.,

Scientists are united in their findings.

And NASA data comes from its various satellites
flying around the globe.

Believe what you want - I believe the hard evidence
of science. And the claim that they're all lying and
fudging figures is absurd.

Dear Foxy,

HenryL, Hasbeen, etc., are denialists who are suffering from paranoid delusions, believing the scientific community is lying to them and trying to do them harm.
