Your idea of debunking must be different than mine.

Posting a link that says exactly what I said: "but you can easily appreciate that sea levels have been much higher than today for much of this period of the Earth's history"

Is pretty much the opposite of debunking as far as I know.

Thank you for so perfectly illustrating my point about selective evidence taken out of context to illustrate the opposite of the actual point being made. You couldn't have picked a better sentence on that entire page.

The full quote for those that care:

"We don’t need to go into a lot of detail, but you can easily appreciate that sea levels have been much higher than today for much of this period of the Earth's history. Scientists have correlated these fluctuations with changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide and ocean and atmospheric temperatures, using methods described in the next few pages.

We also must acknowledge here that some people may argue that sea levels have always fluctuated, so why is sea level rise today a big deal? Hopefully, we can shed some light on this question by looking at the changes in sea level through the history of the Earth, while considering the causes for these changes. But, perhaps the simple fact that seas are rising faster than ever before in human history is enough to facilitate action and adaptation. You also may ask, “What can we do about it?” This question will be addressed in later modules."

Going back to where I originally jumped into this conversation, its pretty clear that no level of evidence will change your position. You ask for conclusive evidence where plenty exists, and treat inconclusive evidence as unimpeachable proof of your position. You are backfilling evidence to support your position instead of building a position from the evidence. You will continue to ignore inconvenient scientific evidence, while stretching misunderstood evidence to the breaking point.

In short, there is no point continuing to debate science with someone so utterly set on their position.

I'm done here. You can have the last word if you want to keep digging your hole.

So you accept the earth was hotter than now and the sea levels much higher than now in our recent history then?

Do you know why the earth is so much colder when the southern hemisphere is in winter than when the northern hemisphere is in winter?

Because anyone not seeking money from the green energy VCs will tell you all about that and how the earths axial precession causes 26k year ice age cycles - what happens to the climate when the sun is mostly shining on ocean rather than land. Guess which phase of that cycle we are in right now...

what was your rationale for accelerating that descent into the next ice age again? Cos yeah, no amount of claims based on zero facts is going to convince me of anything, I find your assumption that humanity under miles of ice a worthy endeavour to be nothing short of grotesque malthusian snake oil.
