Yes, those villagers of Tuvalu are far more enlightened and sophisticated than the residents of coastal communities around the world, where property values continue to..... rise, unlike the sea level.
Barack Obama buys a mansion, his third residence, by the way, on the coast at Martha's Vineyard, after preaching doom and gloom to the rest of the world. Oh and Al Gore did the same thing. He flies hundreds of thousands of miles around the world annually, preaching to everyone else NOT to burn that evil fossil fuel.
You may have missed the point: Tuvalu is increasing in size despite a rise in sea level. The prophets of doom for Tuvalu were/are wrong - this is why we stayed and engaged in construction at Tuvalu.
So, while sea level is variable - do you think we are wrong in stating the mean/average sea level is rising
Here's proof that Tuvalu is getting bigger:
'Sinking' Pacific nation is getting bigger: study
The Pacific nation of Tuvalu—long seen as a prime candidate to disappear as climate change forces up sea levels—is actually growing in size, new research shows.

Of course, the doomsayers always ignore good news such as this. To them, everything is always getting worse, and nothing is ever getting better.
