I’m waiting for a commission to report that Ireland’s volcano is contributing to global warming and must be stopped or sanctions should be placed upon them.

“A meter?”
No, a metre. They are different I bet.

Luckily the land is set to rise .99 meters.

Has to average over 11 mm/yr over the next 89 years to get to the one meter (metre) rise. And it's going up how much today? The alarmists claim 3.2 mm/yr which is probably a gross exaggeration. So starting right now, it's got to more than triple the current rate in order to get there. The rise has dropped to 2.5 mm/year since around 2003 (coincident with the pause in "global warming") So your point is even stronger since the rise is slowing down not speeding up.

Your recollection matches mine. We were also told, in 2003, that global warming had reached the “tipping point” and from now on would be “rapid and irreversible.”
We are now told, that if we do not do something immediately, global warming will begin to gravely affect us.
Most of the sea level rises/artic melt predictions have been moved several decades on, to 2020.

The rise has dropped to 2.5 mm/year since around 2003 (coincident
with the pause in "global warming") So your point is even stronger
since the rise is slowing down not speeding up. Exactly, the link below has been posted here before but it speaks to your point.
You may also note that rate of sea level rise over
recent years has been less than the long-term average.
This is believed to be due to the recent La Nina's we
have been experiencing, though research on this is
continuing. We will soon add a plot to the web site
illustrating this effect.

So they will soon add a plot to the web site. In other words it's going to take a while to come up with a suitable lie.
