In fact they have been rising at a rate of 0.03–0.06 inches (0.8–1.6 millimeters) per year since the 1950s. https://www.ecohubmap.com/hot-spot/sea-level-rise-around-the-maldives/exumklf5kfhie https://theconversation.com/mangroves-in-the-maldives-have-been-drowning-as-sea-level-rises-new-study-240138 https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/148158/preparing-for-rising-seas-in-the-maldives
