This photo of the unchanging height of the sea in over 150 years in Sydney Harbour (see first comment below) is now being blocked by a bespoke facebook warning, as though it might contain harmful content.
Don't you dare take a look at the real world, with your own eyes, folks. We have the official FACTS to give you about how you should be very very afraid of the ever more rapidly rising oceans, even though nobody can find an example of where it is actually happening at the coast of your country.
What is weird about this Fort Denison image "factcheck" is that the truly official facts are already published by U.S. govt. agency NOAA.
Depending on which analysis you believe the estimated rate is either 6.5cm per century or 7.5cm per century from the official data presentation at NOAA.
So, facebook and AAP now believe that the U.S. govt. science agencies need to be factchecked by their expert graduates in Journalism, Gender, and Media Studies, I suppose.
In reality everything the image shows is in line with our best understanding Your eyes do not deceive you.
The reason that it doesn't look like high tide has risen much, is because it hasn't.
At Fort Denison it's a long term rate of rise of less than 1 mm per year. So after 150 years, a rise of that much would not over-top a coffee cup, never mind threatening a wisely constructed coastal defence wall.
I wonder what the stupid factcheck says. I refuse to provide these scumbags with traffic.

Little to no sea level rise and those lying sob's know it. Why did the Maldives build some new airports? And in case anyone forgot Economics 101 - Pumping trillions into an economy can ONLY increase inflation. No serious scholar has ever claimed otherwise. The beaches are generally less than 4 feet above sea level and the highest point on the islands is eight feet. You wouldn't wast millions on airports in a place that will be under water in thirty years. https://maldives.net.mv/35056/maldives-to-open-four-new-airports-in-2020/
