I have personally seen Al Gore declare that if we didn't ban fossil fuels that Florida would be underwater by 2006.
And my dad was telling me that in the 70s global cooling was all the rage
A bit before my time but I've heard much the same.
It helps when you know the history behind why meteorology is a literally fake science.
Whenever someone blathers at me about sea level rise I send them pictures of liberty island.
1886
2023
"Well AKCHUCALLY the first picture was taken at high tide and the newer one at low tide! Checkmate, Earth-hater!!!"
You joke but I had a lady tell me that most of the sea level rise is in the Pacific ocean.

It's all the same ocean*, lady
* excluding density due to the pacific being a tad warmer since... forever.
