What do you say to someone making the argument against climate change that certain places were previously claimed to be underwater by now, but aren't?

What do you say to someone making the argument against climate change that certain places were previously claimed to be underwater by now, but aren't?


I say “That's interesting. Could you link me to the original peer-reviewed paper which made those claims, so I can see exactly what the claims were?”

In the past decade, I have gotten exactly zero links to these supposed “claims”.

From this I conclude that the person asking the question is a deluded idiot, and I find that the best thing to say is “I wish you well in your endeavors”, while at the same time nodding and waving while backing away quietly.
