So... The oceans are not rising, they are sinking.

As Earth's tectonic plates dive beneath one another, they drag three times as much water into the planet's interior as previously thought.

I guess that means those of us who live on the coast don't have to worry about sea level rises. - Tom

It used to be Bush’s fault.

Now, it’s Trump’s fault.

(fault, get it?)

One day the sun will stop flickering and it will be lights out for everyone.

And it can't be prevented.

Modern Science =. When the physical reality does not match the computer model, the physical reality is wrong.

Because snowflakes are never wrong, just ask their mommys, and refer to their participation award collections

So, the sea level will drop and the islands will not vanish. I am sure this will make the greenies happy! :/

"the team calculated that the subduction zones pull 3 billion teragrams of water into the crust every million years (a teragram is a billion kilograms)."

Isn't that = to 3,000 teragrams/year?

So tbe oceans probably wont rise at all, but most likely drop. Given the suns cooling off more seawater will turn to ice and snow fro coldr temps, and now this fact comes out.

In a few years we will hear doom and death about falling water levels.

So globalist warning isn’t causing the ocean to rise after all

plate subduction speeds are at the rate of a few centimeters a year, so i don’t think a significant about of seawater is being carried along into the crust ...
