Sea levels rise by 'unexpected' amount in 2024: NASA

Translation:

"It's not personally affecting ME. Therefore, not a problem. "

Lots of that going around these days.
I’ll let you worry about it for me. I don’t waste time worrying about things beyond my control. Especially when I don’t believe the planet is headed for a man made climate catastrophe.
 
Curious, how’s it affecting you?

For reference ... Indiana is in the "Humid Continental" climate zone ... y'all get rain all year long and it gets stupid cold there in winter (too far from the nearest ocean) ... even with the extra 1ºC, still stupid cold ...

Normal no change since man started living here . Still waiting on what changed and affects anyone
 

On its website, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration explained that last year's increase "was due to an unusual amount of ocean warming, combined with meltwater from land-based ice such as glaciers."

According to the analysis led by NASA, which monitors rising water levels using satellite imagery, the world's seas rose by 0.23 inches (0.59 centimeters) in 2024, well above the 0.17 inches (0.43 cm) predicted by scientists.

"Every year is a little bit different, but what's clear is that the ocean continues to rise, and the rate of rise is getting faster and faster," said researcher Josh Willis of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

Rising sea levels are among the consequences of human-induced climate change, and oceans have risen in line with the increase in the Earth's average surface temperature -- a change which itself is caused by greenhouse gas emissions.

So, a rounding error that's inconsequential.

But that doesn't matter; Its definitely my fault and I should spend my life paying higher taxes and eschewing the western standard of living to combat that canard.

If you live near the ocean just look at the ramps and pilings that have been in the same place for 75 years or more....Still there with the rise and fall of the tides as usual.

I've been propping my fishing pole on the same piling on the outer banks for 40+ years and it's not underwater yet.

Hopefully Trump gets shed of the CC weenies at NASA like he did NOAA.
Stop global warming, defund climate studies by politically motivated scientists.

That's called weather, not climate.

I'm quoting the Köppen Climate Classification system ... stupid ... where ∆t = 100 years ...

Weep them and reap:

Dfb = Warm-summer humid continental climate; coldest month averaging below 0 °C (32 °F), all months with average temperatures below 22 °C (71.6 °F), and at least four months averaging above 10 °C (50 °F). No significant precipitation difference between seasons.

I've lived in Indiana, and it does not rain there every day...
