Along some coastlines in Europe, the ocean may have risen as much as 10 meters in just 200 years. At such a pace, it would have been noticeable to people across just a few human generations.


So drastic sea level changes happened in short amounts of time prior to the industrial age? Wouldn't this imply that it's not something that is caused by humans burning fossil fuels?

Isn’t that nuts?

I especially like to point climate cultists to the sinking of Doggerland 8,000 years ago.

No! You must follow the science!

I mean, not science science, but my own fabricated version of science. If you don't subscribe to my reality, you are certainly a racist, bigoted, misogynistic, homophobic, uneducated redneck!

not really - during the ice age, several hundred feet of sea-level water was locked up in the ice caps - that water was released to go back to the oceans in a fairly short time as the glaciers melted.

HOWEVER - there are many instances of warmer weather than now experienced well before any mammals, let alone humans - especially any form of industrialization, ever existed.

The major driver of global weather is solar activity and the variation in orbits of the earth and moon, as well as the cyclic tilt of their rotational axes. There is a cycle with a name that describes if fairly well - something like a 20,000 year cycle.

It's a curiosity that the Ice Age ended with record flooding and catastrophic manmade global warming, and it coincided with the advent and spread of agriculture in the Middle East, Southern Europe and East Asia. No doubt the proliferation of large farm animals and their production of greenhouse gases made for a drastically warmer planet as the Neolithic Age transitioned into the Bronze Age.

They hypothesize it's from the earth being pummeled from the Torrid meteor shower for a thousand years. Multiple large impacts

Not necessarily and that's pretty poor logic. There can be more than one cause to create similar outcomes.

No. It implies nothing at all.

When I graduated from college I was given a car. Does this imply that each time since then that I’ve gotten a car I graduated from college again?
