York Post<\/a> has the story.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This doesn\u2019t mean climate change isn\u2019t happening, nor that particular locales don\u2019t face a rising-seas problem \u2014 but it&nbsp;<em>does<\/em>&nbsp;mean no apocalypse is coming unless the whole world takes drastic action to prevent it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For decades, complex climate-change models have indicated global sea levels to be rising at twice or more the historic level, but until now, no scientists had bothered checking that against actual observed reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dutch engineer Hessel Voortman and researcher Rob de Vos finally did the work; their peer-reviewed study&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2077-1312\/13\/9\/1641\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">in the Journal of Marine Science and Engineering<\/a>, \u201cA Global Perspective on Local Sea Level Changes,\u201d shows the models have gotten it completely wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They reviewed actual data (on an average of a century of observations) at&nbsp;<em>150,000<\/em>&nbsp;coastal locations across the planet to determine that sea-level rise this century will likely be about 6 inches, the same as last century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The models, which extrapolated from observations in the Antarctic only, plus a host of&nbsp;<em>assumptions<\/em>&nbsp;about how the oceans respond to rising global temperatures, suggested sea levels increasing by 1 foot to 3 feet by 2100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Indeed, Princeton University\u2019s Michael Oppenheimer predicted in 2019 that sea levels would rise by more than 34 inches by century\u2019s end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Dutch researchers\u2019 \u201cfirst-ever global study of sea level rise\u201d refutes those claims \u2014 and raises the huge question of why no one else had bothered to test the predictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of 2020, they found, the worldwide rise is only around&nbsp;<em>1.5 millimeters per year<\/em>&nbsp;\u2014 far less than the 3 mm to 4 mm (0.12 to 0.16 inches) a year routinely reported in scientific literature and the general news media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Read the full story <a
