I just heard a man who bought a multi-million dollar oceanfront home why crying about sea level rise accuse other people of fraud. If sea levels are rising, why are ocean-front homes still a sound investment?
Well they never were, simply because of coastal erosion. Climate change will just accelerate what was already happening.

But we are actively investing in green energy production. This year (2023) 85% of the new generation capacity is the US is solar, wind, batteries and nuclear, the remaining 15% coming from natural gas [1].

What's Al Gore's problem then?…
