> conceptualizing the impact of such slow change.
For years there have been dire warnings about sea level rise, we have seen the same warnings in the last week in the Dutch press again. Apparently lots of ice is melting for years/decades.
Yet, there is no acceleration in the sea level rise on our shores, which has been at a relatively stable ~2mm a year for over a century. Furthermore, sea level has risen since we exitted the ice age, our North Sea used to be land.
