Agreed, the Maldives and other micro nations in the Pacific were predicting catastrophe years ago. I think ‘WE’ as a collective can only go with the flow, roll with the punches. This thing we live on is much more “dynamic” than we give credit for. The Earth has gone through more at Geo-historic times (admittedly with out Human life) than we as inhabitants could imagine or endure. The cyclic behaviour of the planet’s climate has been and always will be extreme judging by the graphs etc I have seen. IMO the ‘war’ that is “climate science” I see going on at present is destructive in its self as the two factions duke it out with what I see from the ‘left’ with propaganda with data that is debunked by what I see as impartial fact by the so called ‘skeptics’. At times I’m not sure who to believe! I think “things” will happen irrespective of what is done.

Englander starts by declaring that coastlines have not changed in 6000 years, but sea levels have been rising at the same rate they are rising now for approximately 8000 years. A look at the data provided by various oceanic agencies will confirm this. So there ended the talk., the rest was hot air - a lot of it, ironically, carbon dioxide. Isn't it odd how sea level rises but appears to stay at the same level relative to any land that isn't known to be sinking? It must be very difficult to measure absolute sea level and I believe a fresh look at how it is done, and the data produced, is necessary, because something isn't right.

2014 - In The Pacific they offered millions of dollars to relocate islanders saying their islands would be underwater within months - The money made the waters rise even faster. Then, when Global Warming didn't happen, the dams weren't empty, the money offered was somehow cancelled and the water levels fell back to where they were. The island of Tuvalu (an atol) didn't disappear and today has MORE landcover - why ? Because all these islands are volcanic - they are subject to upheaval and even sometimes subsidence - it's now Climate Change and as one who visits the islands regularly, I can see without even a blink that sea levels are NOT rising - the corals are sometimes found stranded and that folks is falling sea levels - islands do get pushed upwards. Are you sick of the subject yet? It's going to continue because CLIMATE CHANGE IS AN INDUSTRY. Money to talk to the contaminated minds of the indoctrinated millions - seminars books movies.

The latest NOAH report shows US temperatures DECLINING by nearly 3°F, over the past 5 yrs, alone. Australia has always been considered a tectonically stable land mass, with almost little, ir no vulcanism, dating back BILLIONS of years. Geologically it is best known for sedimentary, & erosional features. Compared to near by Indonesia, it's not suffering from tectonic uplifting, friction, subduction, & the resulting seismic activity, or vulcanism. Yours, is yet another dubious theory that never existed on it's own. It was not developed independently, on it's own merits. It came on the scientific scene, only recently, to explain away HARD DATA that invalidates, or is otherwise problematic for Anthropomorphic Climate Change.

I've had one of these deceitful debaters try to claim the Medevil Warming Period should be dismissed, & all the problems it poses for AGW theory, is meaningless, because that lengthy period of significantly warmer CLIMATIC CONDITIONS, was only a regional phenomenon. I won't go into detail about why this is laughable on it's face, not the least of which is the Gulf Stream out of the Gulf of Mexico, & the Atlantic conveyor, that dictate weather, & the climate of Europe, & the North Atlantic, or written accounts from China during this period, that describe the effects of the warmer temperatures, for the same centuries affecting Europe. No scientific papers have ever claimed the Medieval, or Roman Warming Periods were regional events, & global tree ring records directly contradict this contrived response.

Products from their herds of imported, European grazing animals, entered the extensive Nordic trade network. These marine-based trade routes reached their zenith, during the same period that saw bountiful harvests, surpluses, & agricultural abundance throughout continental Europe, over the centuries of the Medevil Warming Period. I have yet to hear the fairy tale theory to explain the 1/2°F decrease in Global temperatures, over the 3 decades of the CO2 intensive "Post War Economic Boom" from 1945-1975 when man produced more atmospheric CO2, than in the previous 100,000 years of modern man's existence as a novel destinct species ...

Actually an ice free arctic and antarctic are the common state for the poles. Ice being at the poles IS A SYMPTOM OF AN ICE AGE. We've been in one for the entirety of recorded human history. The reason we have sea life fossils in the mid west and such is because for immense periods of the earths history it was under water. There's also the issue that sea levels ARE NOT rising world wide. It's stable in a great many places. New York, Florida and the like have rising sea levels while Ireland, much of Europe at the same latitude are straight up stable or receding in some cases. There is a known geological pattern where the northern western part of the north American continental shelf (basically Canada and the Rockies themselves which are still being shaped by this phenomenon) is straight up getting higher and the south eastern part of the continent are straight up dropping as the continent is encountering another tectonic plate. The issue is a little more complex than just "More water is being added to the system" and its pretty disingenuous of "scientific authorities" (a frankly dangerously laughable term as the scientific method straight up demands arguments from authority be ignored) to make these claims so simple. It benefits no one to ignore half the truth.

I guess my eyes are deceiving me since the "science" claims otherwise.

Yeah, uhm, the anecdotal evidence of *millions* of people is just denial. I've watched the weather and temps where I've lived now for 18 years, and where I lived 30 years before that. Both places are objectively cooler than when I moved to them. So they say "That's weather, not climate".

If the annual rate is 1.1 mm, you wouldn't notice that. That said, I don't think the sea level is anything to worry about.

Very nicely articulated. The non-linearity of the melting phenomenon, and our lack of an understanding about this, is something that gives people an alibi to not step up and take action. But that's what we have to work with.

i surf every day and am happy to report in 30 years there has been exactly 4. to 5 cm of slr in my part of the southern ocean which is very similar to the average since the end of the last glacial maximum but if does jump up quicker there gonna be some great surf spots right out front

Or more briefly "The tides"

Just to add there are also other reasons for levels to increase and decrease. In New Zealand the tectonic plates are causing some parts of the Islands to sink and the others to rise. A lot of cities/towns flood as a result of a lack of drainage as we over build with limited drainage capability. Places like Venice are sinking because of the land built on is actually being compressed by the weight of the buildings. Then there is natural erosion of cliffs and the power of the ocean. Then there are Pacific island communities built on low lying atolls and then any excavation to build houses and roads can lower the already low lying island to be more vulnerable to any sea rise. I think what I find annoying about some of these videos is they deal in absolutes when there are so many variables which also extends to the technology to take measurements accurately.

2/3 of ice melts each summer. How come we do not see any sea level change on the summer. Also It is freezes back on the winter. There is no sea level drop on winter times. YOU must be KIDDING ME!

A question that deserves an answer. We are told the Ice sheet in Greenland is melting yet a few years ago a team recovered a P-38 (WW 2 aircraft) from under 300' of ice and snow in Greenland. That plane was parked about 75 years ago. Anyone care to explain?

Can someone explain the graph shown at 7:07 to me? The middle curve is supposed to show global temp anomaly dating from 450 000 years back? As far as I know, the only place where temperature records go that far back in time is Epica and possibly Vostok sites on Antarctica. So that gives us one or possibly two places to help us calculate the global temperature. Wouldn't you need at least another couple of thousand sources spread out evenly over he globe to get some kind of correct global temperature representation?

20,000 years ago the sea level was 140m lower than present. 20,000 years is 200 centuries. That gives an average sea level rise of 70cm or 2 feet per century. But the sea level has been pretty stable over the last 20 centuries based on sites of historic ports. That means there have been other centuries where sea level rise has been multiple meters to make up for times of stability. So we should not be surprised to see multiple meters of sea level rise this century.

@kirklaird8345

Well, we will be surprised, because the average sea level rise for more than 100 years is about 3/4" per decade. It would have to speed up a great deal to get to multiple meters. And that would indeed be kinda scary. However, they have been predicting for more than 30 years that sea level rise would begin accelerating right away. Still hasn't happened which suggests the climate models are all wrong.

Does he have any observational data from the last century to support his claim that "1 foot of sea level rise = 300 feet shoreline decrease"?

Inaccurate in so many levels...

If I may ask, how much volume capacity does solid ice occupy and how much volume capacity does seawater of the same weight occupy? So, if the solid ice were to melt and become liquid seawater, would there be an increase or decrease in the total volume in the same environment where the two forms had coexisted? And if there were really some form of heat source that is able to force the ice to melt, how much water vapor would there be in the atmosphere? Through the evaporation process, wouldn't the volume of water in the oceans be further decreased? Do your math please! I'm not a scientist but just applying the simple things I learned in my science class forty plus years ago!

@TheBaggyT

I also thought as you do, but think about it this way... Glaciers and other ice which exists on top of a land mass, when melted, will add to the volume of water in the sea. Also, ice is less dense than water, hence it floats. Icebergs are partly above the water, even if they are mostly below. Therefore, if an iceberg were to melt, although it takes up less "space", it also becomes totally part of the water. For an experiment, put some water in a glass, with a couple of ice cubes. Mark a line where the water level is and leave for an hour so that the ice melts. Then see if there is a change in water level. I'm not arguing that sea level rise and/or global warming is taking place, just trying to ensure that we have solid arguments to discuss with the alarmists.

Adaptation instead of mitigation, I agree. The rest of this talk is mostly scare-tactics!

He said that sea level rise cannot be stopped, Refreshing that he didn't blame it all on CO2.

after heatwaves in Australia this summer, i expected antarctica to melt. However, I can see no rise in the level of Sydney harbour. It should be more obvious nearer the equator?

England has been using fences on beaches, a house in England was a mile away from the coast and now about to tip over the edge. We had high temps in the fifties and glaciers were disappearing then. another scaremonger

He seems to forget that tectonic plates are still moving plus due to the extraction of ground water causes the ground to sink.

I think when people start actually having to move that the _PROPERTY LINE_ will prove to be the more significant one.

Create a scare, waterfront property values plummet, buy up a bunch of properties, then apologise and say you were wrong.

The picture of the water rising over the base of the house is a flood condition that this area has endured on occasion for decades. The one true statement in this video is that we have time. The ice in the polar regions are not experiencing temperatures above 32 degrees f. Are they?

So what happens to the earth during summer and winter every year when the earths temperature drastically changes? Do we see the sea level rising due to melting ice?

There is more than one way for sea level to rise. Alarmists never consider subsidence. Sea level is pretty stable. The places where it's rising have subsidence. Land is sinking - the ocean isn't rising.

I'm watching this video in 2019. I live close to the ocean in Sydney, Australia. Sea level rise - nil. There is a blatant lie in this video as well. The polar explorer Amundsen in 1900 sailed through the much sought after north-west passage because it was so ice-free. He went back to map this new sea route and it had closed up again. Further in the 1920s there were newspaper reports about glaciers along the Rhone Valley having disappeared and the sea ice had disappeared from around Greenland and Iceland. I could go on and on.

I just did the math. Look at the area of Greenland compare it to the area of the ocean. If the sea level was to rise 24' the ice on Greenland would need to be 1,100 miles thick!!!!

Since most of Greenland is below sea level, if the ice melted there would be a large basin for much of the melted water.

He said the flooding Florida gets every 28 days happens all over the world. It does not. Florida takes it fresh water from artesian aquifers which causes the deeper strata to depressurise and the overburden compresses the carbonate rock.. coupled with the land dropping from the ice over NA melting due to the ice age is causing the land to sink. Florida is a special case without CO2 coming into it.

There is a correlation between CO2 and Temperature and Sea rise. The oceans absorb CO2 when it is cold and release CO2 when it warms. As you can see from the graphs over thousands of years before man had it's impact in the last 50 years this ahas been happening. The hypothesis gets, I believe, a bit skewed when they focus on CO2 as the main driver in climate change, in the last 50 years and the human part that is added in that equation. This is a hard one to quantify natural vs man made CO2. Recently adding to CO2 from Volcanoes and many fires in cities like Los Angles. I totally think sea rise is a problem it always has been as you can see over thousand of years either expanding or contacting from land. Building in areas that are flat and close to the ocean is a risky business especially if there is only 1 meter or so buffer zone. I agree climate varies, ocean levels vary. The question for me is the CO2 relation in the equation as a greenhouse gas, the main cause . The major greenhouse gas is water vapour, then methane, CO2, NO2, SO2. Then you have to look at all the variables that cause can cause change in temperatures. The Sun is the biggest one, followed by the clouds, Earths orbit, it's tilt, Magnetic field etc all playing a part. This has been happening for thousands of years and we still don't understand the correlations. What I do know is pollution is killing this planet from plastic to toxic waste in our oceans to the polluted toxic rivers. I know human population is rapidly expanding and we are effecting other ecosystems causing them to become extinct from destroying their habitat to over hunting/fishing/killing them. Burning petrol and fossil fuels releases toxic harmful gases CO2 is not one of them but the toxic ones include NO2 Nitrogen dioxide Carbon Monoxide , Sulphur dioxide, benzene, and particulate matter, and low level ozone that traps gas in causing a min greenhouse effect ( smog). We need to clean up our act on that basis and think about what we can do to be more sustainable. Carbon dioxide is the least of the problem that face our oceans or us as is fart gas methane.

@Hypercube Jones. Really ? If you measure ocean acidity what you find is the ocean has a pH of higher than 7, that means it is basic (i.e. alkaline). Therefore if the pH is dropping the ocean is neutralizing. So the bleaching cannot be due to acidity dissolving the calcium carbonate, because the ocean is not yet acidic. The bleaching is due to the coral polyps ejecting the symbiotic algae with rising temperature, according to modern research. It should be noted that bleaching was noticed way back in the 1960s, when CO2 levels and ocean temperatures were much lower. Then they thought it was due to the Crown of Thorns Starfish or the dynamiting of the reefs for fishing. What really damages the reef is powerful typhoons which reduce it to rubble. Also coral reefs exist in warmer seas where the polyps link up with a different species of algae. Furthermore if the ocean gets warmer then CO2 will tend to be given off - that's a matter of scientific fact, not opinion.

From the year 1993 to 2019 the seal level has risen 9 cm, about 3.3 mm per year on average (Satellite observations from NASA).

Good news for Mr Englander sea level will go on rising with 1.1 mm per year in Florida and all over the ocean coasts of the planet. No acceleration. In Miami the coast is subsiding as in New York, Boston etc. But the net sea level rise is 1.1 mm as measured by all tide gauges all over the world. The Indian Ocean shows even 0.0 mm sea level rise since decades in spite of "dramatic" ice melts in Grenland and Antarctica. And the global warming seems to have 0.00 influence on sea level. I trust the tide gauges more than the Satellite altimetry with a very poor accuracy of their radars. Bangladesh and Maledives will not get drowned. But Mr Englander will have to look for another scaring story for his next Ted talk.

Put ice cubes in a glass add water and fill the glass up then see how much water spills over when the ice has melted. Answer none.

I think his speech was more emotional than factual. It’s a sham that climate alarmist are running out of arguments as to why the level is rising...... it’s not.

if his graph were accurate it would at least undoubtedly show the holocene optimum as warmer than present . should also show roman and MWP as warmer . doesn't show any acceleration of SLR tho

Cool story bro water seeping through the ground happens when you add a lot of weight to the ground above it in a low lying area. That pretty much explains why certain places are flooding and others are not.

I stopped watching at his opening statement that for 6,000 years sea levels have been constant. As an example look up Roman ports & costal settlements. You will find some of those are literally miles from the coast today. Conversely, look up Doggerland that is now under the North Sea. Any true scientist will accept that his opening statement is inaccurate & misleading.

In order to address the problem of rising sea levels, how about this alternative idea: We explode us into a deeper landscape beneath the sea, so that the water have more space/ depth to be in. We use the remaining rock fragments from the explosions on the already existing land, above sea - or send the obsolete rock mass to outer space.
