Sea levels are set to fall over millions of years, making the current rise blamed on climate change a brief interruption of an ancient geological trend, scientists said.

you so much
i like the teaching style...the topics covered.
Great Depth of Knowledge.......thank you..
Have attended online the Blue Planet lecture series. Would
love to have the remainder of the lectures available. As an
over-the-hill ecologist, I find the trends in new science
fascinating.
