That pic is photshoped.
Care to present the photographic proof?
If there is sea level rise, there is photographic evidence.
Whatcha got?
Care to present the photographic proof?Florida is being nibbled away now, I don't see all the way under until the end.

Whatcha got?
Those who aren't brain-dead deniers will appreciate this.
Rising sea level a threat to East

As temperatures are projected to climb, polar ice to melt, and oceans to swell over the coming decades, Boston is likely to bear a disproportionate impact of rising sea levels, government scientists report in a new study. The seas along the East Coast from North Carolina to New England are rising three to four times faster than the global average, and coastal cities, utilities, beaches, and wetlands are increasingly vulnerable to flooding, especially from storm surges, according to the US Geological Survey study published Sunday.
Cities in the hot spot, like Norfolk, New York, and Boston, already experience damaging floods during relatively low-intensity storms, said Asbury Sallenger, a Geological Survey oceanographer and lead author of the study in the journal Nature Climate Change. Accelerated sea-level rise, he said, will add to the height that storm surges and breaking waves reach on the coast. The findings come as Boston and Massachusetts officials are taking the first of a range of responses to the threat of rising seas. The report did not project how much levels would rise in the Northeast, but globally, oceans are projected to increase between 2 feet and 6 feet by the end of the century, and as much as an additional 5 feet during the heaviest storms. Climate scientists say such storms are likely to increase in intensity and frequency over the coming decades.

Are there any words in this article that indicate to you that the guys who wrote this know less about the climate than Holder knows about ethics?
Today's massive thunderstorms killed 13; NE Florida, plus SE Ga., are still under severe flood warnings. INLAND water is the big problem now.
If it's real, it's a high tide with storm out to sea. I'm not totally convinced of photoshopping.Care to present the photographic proof?
If there is sea level rise, there is photographic evidence.
Whatcha got?
Not a real good level of understanding there.
What you need to show is a photo from 1900 or earlier of a particular shore line with a landmark of some type and then show the same spot from the same angle with the evidence that there has been sea level rise.
Again, whatcha got?
Today's massive thunderstorms killed 13; NE Florida, plus SE Ga., are still under severe flood warnings. INLAND water is the big problem now.

As this summer progresses, if we see a repeat of the last two years, 2010, and 2011, I think it safe to say that we are starting to see the predicted climate change, with attendent disasters. Disasters that will increasingly affect agriculture and require increasing amounts of our national and personal income to ameliorate.
