Knowledgeable freepers please respond.
I live on Long Island. The high tide line isn’t any higher than 53 years ago when I moved here. Going fishing on my boat tomorrow. Will fill you in if that changed any.
Where’s the problem?
Sea level rise raises all boats. Just move the navy “inland” to the new coastline, problem solved!
Erosion or subsidence versus water level rise. Semantics?
I’ll worry when Al Gore sells his beachfront property at a loss.
I remember many years ago a story about how the population center around Miami had extracted so much from the water table that salt water was filling into the Everglades.
That’s not Glo-BULL Warming making the seas rise... it’s Liberal Tears.
In the 1920’s my grandfather travelled by skiff to Smith Island to rescue his parents’ caskets being washed away by steady erosion.
Why aren’t we seeing news stories about how prime beachfront Florida real estate has returned to it’s previous state of under the waves? Should be mass evacuations due to the rising sea level panic they’re trying to spread but we see nothing about it.
But, but, Obama fixed that with his mere presence.
Compared to the trillions that the left demands be extracted and redistributed to some nebulous world authority in order to purportedly “stop” climate change, moving that naval base to higher ground is chump change. That’s assuming that there actually ever will be any ongoing rise in sea levels, an assumption that is thus far highly questionable.
They’re ships.
They float.
Everything will be fine...
Don’t worry, the ships will float on top of the sea
How do we know its not just the earth’s surface shell doing what it always does - adjusts to varying pressure from Sun, Moon, volcanic pressures, etc. Maybe the base land is sinking under a tectonic plate somewhere out of sight. For the sea levels to rise, everywhere, implies more water in the ocean everywhere. What we seem to have here is a local, relative to the earth’s surface, bulge in a continental land mass.
No
So,... women are safe now, to ride across Bridges in a car driven by a Kennedy.
Who knew that NAS China Lake would soon be on the coast?
Having lived on the shores of the Chesapeake bay since 1989, I can testify that, based on maintaining 2 docks on my property, there as been no appreciable change in the level of the average water level...Except during the tides...And hurricane Elizabeth which left 5-feet of water and mud in the first floor of my house.
