Sea Level Rise

Ed Hawkins, a climate scientist at the University of Reading (and the creator of the warming stripes) has posted on twitter this animation of sea level rise between 1900 and 2023. It's a crucial range of data, but personally I find this complementary graph posted in the replies to be a more helpful visualisation.

Some pseudo-sceptic in the replies posted a de rigueur "Plymouth Rock" jibe: Here's a short thread about that by Rob Larter, a polar marine scientist*.

*I've linked to the last tweet in Rob's thread to prevent twitter truncating it with a "Show replies" link. Please just scroll up to see the thread in its entirety.
