…you wrote that they're killing the 🌴palms🌴 to "help make this coral-ringed atoll, which has an elevation of just 2 meters, more resilient to sea-level rise and other ravages of climate change."
@KennethWeiss @ScienceMagazine 2/4 That's nonsense. Sea-level rise is glacially slow, and not significantly accelerating.
The measurements prove it. Do you understand graphs? Here's the best long, continuous Pacific sea-level measurement record:

@KennethWeiss @ScienceMagazine 3/4 Global sea-level rise is so slight that in many places it's dwarfed by local factors, like vertical land motion, erosion & sedimentation. As you can see, @GretaThunberg's hometown of Stockholm is one such place.

@KennethWeiss @ScienceMagazine @GretaThunberg 4/4 Please stop reporting the corrupt climate industry's propaganda as if it were science. What the REAL science shows is that manmade climate change is modest and benign, and CO2 is beneficial, rather than harmful.
