The claim: Photos prove no sea level rise, climate change is a hoax
Just a few days before Earth Day 2021, a Facebook post claimed to show climate change is a hoax based on two photos taken a century apart.
The post reads, 99 years of sea level rise Palm Beach Sydney, and includes images labeled as being from 1917 and 2016. They show the water level at a similar point both years. For years they called it Global Warming. But they were proven over and over that no such thing is happening, says the April 19 post, which was shared thousands of times in various forms. Then they started calling it Climate Change. Again it is a hoax.
