Original Note:
The claim that the rate of increase in sea level is 1/8" in 500 years is incorrect. The number is close to 1" in 7 years. This is about 3½ times faster than the rate of increase 100 years ago, before humans added hundreds of billions of tons of fossil carbon to the atmosphere https://www.globalchange.gov/indicators/sea-level-rise
