Climate Change Denier comes in from the cold: SCIENCE!!!

The other day I found myself sitting on a park bench down at the harbour (got no idea how or why I ended up there), and after a couple of hours of mindless indolence I noticed that the level of the ocean had risen slightly! Scary.

Several years ago I found myself listening to a lecture at Griffith University as part of an Environmental Science course. The lecturer told us all about Gaia, a manifestation of paganism which is apparently something science students need to know about. Weird.

Well ... almost. I started screaming hysterically that the ocean was rising and was beginning to panic, when some people nearby told me it was only the tide coming in. I hadn't thought of that.

It's weird that you think it weird that I thought it was weird.

Ah yes ... Tuvalu. Courtesy of relentless climate-change propaganda, we're well aware of those islands here in Australia.Thousands of years ago the Tuvalu islands were probably volcanic mountains of considerable height, but they've slowly been sinking back into the sea and are now reduced to low-lying coral atolls. Coral atolls are often roughly circular or cresent-shaped, because the last part of the mountains to disappear beneath the waves is the volcanic crater on top.
So it's entirely possible that Tuvalu is sinking, rather than being swallowed up by a rising ocean.Furthermore, Tuvalu is situated on the notoriously volcanic "the Ring of Fire", which is comprised of the most tectonically active and unstable regions on earth. Since tectonic plates can move up or down (think of the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami that originated in Indonesia), it's possible a downwards-moving tectonic plate could be contributing to Tuvalu's problems, rather than rising sea levels. Shishmaref is situated very close to the "Ring of Fire", so maybe it's problems are due to vertical tectonic movement, not rising sea levels.If the oceans are indeed rising, they will be rising at every point of every coastline on the planet, yet all we've heard about for the last twenty years are the problems at the grand total of TWO locations - Tuvalu and Shishmaref. Funny, that.
​ Thank you.

Thank you for considering my trivial post worthy of a response.

Oh, I get it - you have next to nothing to offer as evidence that rising sea levels are problematic, so you've resorted to trying to change the subject.If "global warming" were causing alarming rises in sea levels, two countries especially would be screaming blue bloody murder - the Netherlands and Bangladesh. But what do we hear from them? Sweet bugger-all.
