Sea level is about 2mm higher than it was seven years ago. It will only take 3,500 years to achieve 1 metre of rise, or 17,500 years to reach Hansen’s five metres this century forecast.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

the keyword is “unadjusted”
The “waves” ARE getting higher.
PS: I think Hansen was born ahead of his time, about 117,500 years ahead of his time. Maybe after the next Glacial Cycle, during the next Inter-Glacial, he just might be right for a day or two. Today he sounds like a cracked, scratched, warped, old broken record. I’m sorry, what is it that American Taxpayers are paying him and GISS to do? I keep forgetting.
So do he and his co-workers!
So when the data is adjusted, what is it adjusted for? Are these adjustments valid or are they open to question?
The main point of the adjustments is to remove seasonal and other temporal variations. They should not change the trend however, which they do. Indicating that they are wrong.
raw data should be indicated as “unfudged”
How long are the seasonal and other temporal variations?
People in low lying areas have plenty of time to adapt, assuming they need to adapt at all. Another example of crying “wolf” when there is no wolf.
