Saddened by the fact that sea level is barely rising, climate scientists made up a fake upwards sea level adjustment called the Global Isostatic Adjustment. It is based on a theory that sea level rise would be 10% faster if not for glacial rebound.
Using that adjustment, they will eventually virtually drown New York, even if sea level doesn’t rise at all.
I propose an equally valid adjustment – the Glacial Contribution Adjustment – which compensates for the excess water in the oceans due to glacial melt. Sea level rise rates should be adjusted downwards by 1 mm/year to show what the rate would be if not for glacial melt. The logic behind this adjustment is identical to the GIA, except for one problem – it works against funding instead of in favor of it.
Reblogged this on The Firewall.
The GIA adjusted data is an estimate of sea volume rise, not sea level rise. Anyone claiming it is sea level rise, like the folks who introduced the adjustment, are lying.
If you believe this crap from the guvmint you have to be dumber than a gore.
Climatologists = Adjustmentologists 😉
So we’re being SAVED by a sinking sea bed and rising Continents!!
This should be cause for joy… Not more Alarmism…
