No catastrophic sea level rise? Because... Global Warming!

NASA Study Concludes Global Warming Is Actually Slowing Sea Level Rise

A new NASA study concludes global warming increases the amount of water stored underground which, in turn, slows the rate of sea level rise.

At a time when scientists are worried about accelerating sea level rise, NASA scientist John Reager and his colleagues found an extra 3,200 gigatons of water was being stored by parched landscapes from 2002 to 2014, slowing sea level rise by 15 percent.

"We always assumed that people's increased reliance on groundwater for irrigation and consumption was resulting in a net transfer of water from the land to the ocean, Reager said, according to AFP.

Settled science! Now when predictions fail to materialize, you can still blame Global Warming!

hahahahaahaahahahaha
 
The way this crew contorts and creates theories to try and validate their premise would be funny if it wasn't used to justify incredibly harmful policies around the world. Ice isn't decreasing because the heat is hiding at the bottom of the sea, water levels aren't rising because water is hiding in the ground. When it's colder than usual it is because of climate change, when it is warmer than usual, it is because of global warming - and "usual" is a completely arbitrary condition, defined as necessary to support the premise. And on and on..
