    That's pathetic Moondoong, what you are showing is the sea level rise associated with coming out of a glacial period (ice age). The time frames we are talking about are much different and much closer to home. Posting unattributed and unreferenced charts is very poor form, I might add. Seems to be one difference between those that follow the science and those that follow some sort of voodoo or climate denial/scepticism religion or whatever it is.



    "Glacials are characterized by cooler and drier climates over most of the Earth and large land and sea ice masses extending outward from the poles. Mountain glaciers in otherwise unglaciated areas extend to lower elevations due to a lower snow line. Sea levels drop due to the removal of large volumes of water above sea level in the icecaps. There is evidence that ocean circulation patterns are disrupted by glaciations. Since the Earth has significant continental glaciation in the Arctic and Antarctic, we are currently in a glacial minimum of a glaciation. Such a period between glacial maxima is known as an interglacial."
