Have sea levels remained stable over the past century? | DW News

have sea levels really remained stable over the past Century this picture from Rio de Janeiro is being misused to support that claim but this is false since 1880 Global sea levels have risen by 21 to 24 cm but why does this picture seem to tell a different story it’s an artificial process where in the beginning of the 20th century they build a seaw wall uh and filled it with uh sand and rocks and afterwards they could build the work neighborhoods on top of it in fact the relative sea level Trend near sugara Mountain shows an increase of 23 cm between 1963 and 2016 such differences are hardly visible in photos especially when taken from far away or at different times of the day and studies show sea levels are rising as a result of human cause global warming so don’t be fooled [Music]

Debunking a viral photo collage of Rio de Janeiro’s Sugarloaf Mountain that falsely claimed to prove sea levels have fallen instead of risen.

Fact is: Global sea levels have risen by 21 to 24 centimeters since 1880.

  1. so WHAT is "climate change"?
    they say to get rid of carbon or, carbon agenda. well carbon in the bible is described as a #6.66 (rev. 13: 18) or, 6 protons, 6 neutrons, 6 electrons. they want to get rid of carbon NOT in the air but, on land. we are the CARBON based lifeforms the want to depopulate!
    WHO are they?
    well at rev. 13 it described the 7th world power as a 7th head that was struck down healed and brought back. this refers to how the league of nations was dismantled and brought nack as United Nations or, UN.
    (please read rev. 13 slowly)
    this is the great tribulation that jesus talked about at mathew 24.
    DON'T take "mark" UN global digital id. in hand or bowdown to UN religion that is coming (rev. 13: 12)
    (side note: rev. is chronological. before the UN 2030 agenda is, apophis asteroid april 13, 2029 described at rev. 8.)
    take care

  2. Back when the earth was young we were taught in schools about a the post-glacial rebound. Parts of the earth were sinking as an after effect of the retreat of the glaciers after the end of the last ice age. Removal of the weight of the immense ice sheets cause. areas to raise and now they are still rebounding back. So many coastal areas are sinking , like the US Atlantic seaboard. Other areas in Northern Canada and Antarctica are raising up as they lost the ice later. JPL put out map showing this.

  3. Sea levels have not remained stable, everybody knows that. What did remain stable is the amount of sea level rise, at about 20-30cm per century, after 150 years of climate change!

  4. Lol, I didn't know Jamu showed in the short have a sea, it's 1000s of Kilometers away from sea😂😂😂. Can't even check something like that and you call yourself journalist.

  5. All of this is true, but climate change is not the only reason for rising sea levels. Plate tectonics are also responsible. Some plate are sinking, others are rising.

  6. The old narrative to subdue the bulk of the herd was ‘The original sin’ now it is ‘Climate change’, which in reality has been going on since Mother Earth was conceived.

  7. Regrettably, this hysteria coupled with false and misleading information adds weight to the already erroneous amount of allegedly scientific information available.
    A sea level marker placed ten years ago on the shore of the gulf of Thailand e.g. displays the same height today as then.
    Many observers fail to take into account undersea and subterranean seismic activity that may or may not affect sea levels IN DIFFERERENT AREAS!

  8. Trying to make a claim based on seeing 1 letter out of an entire book. 150 years of recorded history out of millions of years. 😮

  9. How much water do supertankers, super sized cargo ships along with man made islands displace ? Along with all the other boats in the oceanic bathtub and then there’s the new land made by volcanic activity displacing water etc … 🫤

  10. No THERS ALOT of old pics of sea ports with exact same tide marks today as 150yr ago this u can't have rising sea levels in 1 area and not the rest of the world. Localised so called rising sea levels are more likely land sinking
