Damn it! Damn it to hell! Satellite measurements show that sea levels aren’t rising like the warmers predicted, so a NASA-funded group has come up with its own scientific theory to explain the shortfall. And by “scientific” we mean “making crap up as they go along.”
Forbes has the latest global warming “facts”:
Satellite measurements, however, show global sea level rose merely 0.83 inches during the first decade of the 21st century (a pace of just 8 inches for the entire century), and has barely risen at all since 2006. This puts alarmists in the embarrassing position of defending predictions that are not coming true in the real world.
The University of Colorado Sea Level Research Group is coming to their rescue. The NASA-funded group claims glacial melt is removing weight that had been pressing down on land masses, which in turn is causing land mass to rise. This welcome news mitigates sea-level rise from melting glacial ice, meaning sea level will rise less than previously thought. However, it is very inconvenient for alarmist sea level predictions. Therefore, instead of reporting the amount by which sea level is rising in the real world, the Sea Level Research Group has begun adding 0.3 millimeters per year of fictitious sea level rise to “compensate” for rising land mass.
In other words, they’re twisting the facts to make them fit the theory. Kind of like they did with tree ring data and the hockey stick.
Seems to us that those same precise satellite measurement devices that are capable of measuring a miniscule rise in sea levels should also be capable of measuring any corresponding rise in land masses.
We’ll just sit here and wait for the University of Colorado Sea Level Research Group to deliver that data.
Oh, wait. What were we thinking? They’re the Sea Level Research Group. That data will probably have to come from another NASA-funded organization called the Land Mass Level Research Group.

NASA's primary mission is to reach out to Muslims and pet them in order to build up their self esteem or some damn thing, what the hell are they doing wasting time and money on this planet thingy?
That's by Obama's command. Check the video at about 2:40

Watch the other hand. Global warming is the distraction with an agenda. Money for sweaty Al and windmills. The other hand is appeasing the growing religion of Islam, which has no problem filling the streets with violence and chaos. Coming soon to a city near you.
No, no ,no. The sea level isn't rising because the sun is evaporating the oceans just as fast as the ice caps are melting. We aren't getting increased cloud cover and rain because of the hole in the ozone layer allowing the evaporated molecules to escape into outerspace where it once again turns back into ice and floats around in space until it gets caught in the gravitational pull of Mars. Which is why NASA is searching for life on Mars, because everyone knows that where there is water there has to be life.
He stopped the oceans from rising in his first term.This gives him something to do in his second term,stop the land from rising. And maybe if we give him a third term he'll get to some less important things like stopping unemployment and the deficit from rising
The sea level is not rising because Barack Obama is president and he promised to LOWER THE OCEANS! Don't those boobs at NASA know anything?????
Stop global laming!
LOL!
Their bullshit floats.
Wait.... the same volume of ice weighs less than the same volume of water, therefore how could the ice be pushing down more on the land mass? As my Grandpa used to say "what a bunch of mularkey."
just think about a huge weight on top of the land getting off.
Yeah, well alien, glacial rebound takes tens of thousands of years and even hundreds of thousands of years to be noticed, and since NASA hasn't been around nearly that long and their measurement satellites haven't been up in space for more than a decade or so, it still sounds like AGW BS being dressed up in a new Sunday go to meeting suit. I'm definitely not a flat earther, but I'll be damned if I blindly believe anything that dribbles out of the yappers of these marxist buffoons. In my day we called them geeks!
Its called glacial rebound. NASA didn't just make this up. Its an old old observation. We learned about it up north because the land is still coming up in places.
I'll grant you, it seems new in this context
Who would have ever guessed scientist bending facts to fit their therories? NO, that never happens!
