  1. For some context, check how much sea levels are currently rising – if I remember correctly, it is something like 3 millimeters per year.

    We don’t even know for sure what causes the rise. The assumption is that warming is responsible.

    Perhaps there is another mechanism at work here?

    And then … 3 mm of rise translate to about 30 cm in a century.

    Should we really call that a problem requiring an urgent solution?

    1. If an average change of a small size over time results in more death and destruction, yes, we should take it seriously… but trying to save the Pacific Ocean from Fukishima seems more important.
