Further evidence that the AGW ecotards, have been overplaying the rising sea level risk.
A new, first-of-its-kind comprehensive scientific analysis has shown that there is little to fear from rising sea levels driven by global warming. The likelihood is that the 21st century will see rises much like those of the 20th, and even in the worst possible case sea levels in 2100 will be far below those foreseen by alarmists.
There's a catch, of course: on a timescale of many centuries, serious alarmist-type rises in sea levels are to be expected. Even if humanity ceases all carbon emissions right now, in the year 3000AD the seas will have risen by 1.1m, according to Professor Philippe Huybrechts and his team.
So there’s nothing to worry about folks. It also helps to explain why Deutsche Bank has decided to close down their climate change research department.
Seems there’s not enough “Green” to be made in being green...
Andy, your comment "Even if humanity ceases all carbon emissions right now ... " is the telling one.
As you would be well aware, there is Buckley's chance of that happening, therefore the higher total on the graph you supplied is the more likely scenario. Namely, that the sea-level rise is closer to 7 metres by 3000AD and close to 1 metre by 2200AD.
