An excerpt:
Present sea level was attained between 7900 and 7700 cal. yr BP [before present], approximately 700—900 years earlier than previously proposed. Sea level continued to rise to between +1 and +1.5 m between 7700 and 7400 cal. yr BP, followed by a sea-level highstand that lasted until about 2000 cal. yr BP followed by a gradual fall to present.I wonder why there's no mention of imminent, catastrophic sea level rises.
Note this excerpt from this link:
The Holocene Epoch is synonymous with the Recent or Postglacial interval of Earth's geologic history and extends from 10,000 years ago to the present day.
