...or parts of Italy, Canada, the United States and so on. Conspiracy theory only works if you don't go outside or have the power of independent thought. Or read a newspaper or watch the news. Or see your neighbour flooded out twice in five years in two "once in a hundred years" events. People are dying through climate change and the idiots think it's a f***ing joke.
Many climate scientists say rising sea levels are the result of melting ice and that lowering sea levels do not exist.
Earth scientists say changes in sea levels are the result of tectonic plate movement and can demonstrate many examples of the sea levels both rising and settling. The Indonesian earthquake of 2004, Japanese earthquake in 2011 and the Anchorage earthquakes in 1964 and 2011 all provide graphic proof that the sea level rises in some places and drops in others. IIRC one area in Japan had a 9 metre (30ft) change between touching sections of the same road. Somehow some people deny the reality of tectonic plate movement and believe that the dropped section is the result of global warming and the risen section could never have happened.
Today's Japanese earthquakes, and those that have preceded them over the last days, may not result in any topographical changes on land but almost certainly did in the region they happened.
Of possible interest to those who live outside earthquake zones Anchorage has had 1,252 earthquakes in the past 365 days. A percentage of these have resulted in the permanent distortion of the earths surface - both up and down.
I could not find the equivalent data on any single city in Japan but the whole country has had 670 earthquakes in the last 365 days
