Climate change skeptics won’t be able to help but derive some level of pleasure from the results of the study as they not only contradict liberal arguments that the continents are sinking, but also out them in the position of disagreeing with scientists. After all, disagreeing with scientists is “denialist”, and they don’t want to be denialist, do they?
A new study reveals that the Earth is actually gaining more land at coastlines, contrary to the belief that global warming is leaving to shrinking continents.
The Dutch Deltares Research Institute study found that the Earth has gained more than 107,000 square miles of land over the last 30 years, including roughly 21,000 square miles along coastlines.
Water is taking over land in some areas, however. In that same timeframe, the planet has gained more than 71,000 square miles of water — which includes 12,500 square miles at the coast.The research group used a tool that measured changes to land and water across the world.
“We expected that the coast would start to retreat due to sea level rise, but the most surprising thing is that the coasts are growing all over the world,” researcher Dr. Fedor Baart told BBC News last week. “We’re were able to create more land than sea level rise was taking.”

This could be linked to the sunspot cycle calming down.
AL GORE HAS MADE MILLIONS USING GLOBAL WARMING TO DELUDE THE PUBLIC. AND THE DEMOCRATS ARE GOING ALONG WITH THAT SAME MINDSET, AS AN EXCUSE THAT THEY CAN BLAME GLOBAL WARMING ON ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING? ALWAYS BE PREPARED TO EXPLAIN THEUR STUPIDITY ON GLOBAL WARMING.
