Your SUV caused the end of the LIA. The climate lobby are quite possibly the stupidest people who ever walked the planet.
A millennium later, it looks like North Carolina will suffer the consequences of climate change as well if we don’t adjust our lifestyles. Scientists have found evidence that over the past century, the Tar Heel state has suffered the steepest climate-associated sea level rise of the past 2,000 years. The coastal erosion that accompanies these rising sea levels, left unchecked by poor management, will bring significant losses to North Carolina – but this time it is property values, quality of life, and tourism that will be affected, and by climate change-induced temperature shifts in the other direction.
The research team, led by Andrew Kemp of the University of Pennsylvania’s Department of Earth and Environmental Science, found that sea levels have risen at about 2.1 millimeters per year since the late 19th century, compared to a rate of only 0.6 millimeters per year around the Middle Ages. Sea level was stable from B.C. 100 to A.D. 950, according to the scientists.
North Carolina is a local case. Global warming believers tell us never to care about local events since they aren’t global. Global warming believers must be certain to contact Time and tell them to retract the article and publish an apology for their false reporting.

O.K.!
More paper towels and display cleaner…Oh, and a fresh cup of coffee
OMG, that’s like 8 1/4 inches a century. I’m sure everyone will be glad to live in squalor for 8 1/4 in a century. When the Poodle, Harrison Ford, James Camaron, Michael Mann, and the list is endless, squat down in cold miserable hovels, I may decide to join them (but then again, I may not 😉 )
It appears that the Kemp study relies on the upside Tiljander sediments! Strange how they keep reappearing.

UPSIDE DOWN!!!
Wiwkipedia suggests that North Carolina has been hit by 403 hurricanes and tropical storms so far.
I’m sure every one of those left the sediment undisturbed where Mann took his samples.
But maybe that explains the upside down tijlander … the hurricanes turned everything topsy turvy.
North Carolina coast is sediment from the erosion of the Appalachians. That means it is compacting just like every other delta region. By building along the coast sedimentation stopped laying down more layers to compensate for the compaction.
The Mannomatic strikes again!
