We are told:
“In the 21st century, sea levels have increased at almost double the rate seen in the 1900s…”
If you Google this title:
“Why has an acceleration of sea level rise not been observed during the altimeter era?”
You will find that sea level over the last 22 years is not increasing faster and faster. That presentation by Dr. R. Steve Nerem at Colorado University’s Sea Level Research Group (They keep the satellite data) is a few years old now but it remains true.
Steve, many of these little islands are barely above sea level to start with. It is possible that the land has subsided rather than the sea rising. If the islands are not volcanic, it is easy to see why they are having a problem. It isn’t happening in Hawaii which is mostly volcanic formation.
Rising temperatures due to global warming and increased C02 levels and ph in oceans destroys coral reefs. It is a myth that coral reefs grow faster than rising sea level. Coral reefs are being destroyed, if coral reefs were growing faster than sea level rising we might have noticed the thousands of new islands created this century.

Nice to see you’re still keeping the natives informed, Steve.Ö¿Ö
Of course, the climate change people want to advance their agenda in every way possible and it is man’s fault no matter what happens.
Coral atolls grow faster than sea level is rising.
Coral atolls grow faster that sea level is rising.

Coral doesn’t grow above water, didn’t you know that simple fact?
