The bottom line is that there is no trend of recently
observed sea level rising data that is even close to
being on track to hit all these dire predictions
within the foreseeable future....
And, again, there were articles like this 10, 15, and
even 20 years ago that made very similar predictions
- that didn't happen.
------------------------------------------
Maybe the dire predictions didn't happen, but when
combined with other drivers stuff happens. For
example:
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2016/may/10/headlines-exaggerated-climate-link-to-sinking-of-pacific-islands
"The study blamed the loss on a combination of sea-level
rise and high wave energy."
"The major misunderstanding stems from the conflation
of sea-level rise with climate change."
"...the ocean has been rising in the Solomon Islands at
7mm per year, more than double the global average."
"...driven partly by global warming and partly by
climatic cycles - in particular the Pacific Decadal
Oscillation."
So for us, it's an it depends thing. It depends what
cables and where they're located.
