Greatest Lie Ever Told?
Let's Review Place #5:
Juneau, Alaska
For years (decades?), climate alarmist scientists have been claiming that the oceans were rising with "unprecedented" speed due to human-caused global warming. These scientists claim that because of all the melting of glaciers and ice sheets, due to human-caused warming, the sea levels are rising at an accelerated pace and will continue to so - up to a 20 foot rise by the end of the century is predicted. If this accelerated sea level rising is happening as claimed, then it should be evident across the world. Fortunately, the sea rise at the Juneau, Alaska is not happening at all - seas levels are declining at rate of 4 feet/century. This is just but one example of ocean facts countering sea-rise alarmism hype - more to follow. (On average, recent satellite measurements put global ocean level increases at 3mm/year or 1 foot/century.)

Um....sea levels do not appear to be rising in Southeast Alaska because of isostatic rebound - uplift of the land caused by receding glaciers. Sea levels are still rising, but the land is rising faster in this area.
