re: 'Global Warming Is Lies' Claims Documentary

In report associated with you:

"The Future Oceans –
Warming up, Rising High,
Turning Sour"
Which says:
"Climate change causes sea-level to rise, particularly
due to ocean warming and the melting of inland glaciers
and continental ice sheets. Throughout the 20th
century, global sea-level rise averaged 1.5–2.0cm per
decade. Satellite measurements show that the
decadal rate already reached 3cm in the past decade."

What basis you have for this claim?

From http://sealevel.jpl.nasa.gov/science/invest-cazenave.html

"From these observations, it has been deduced that the global mean sea level has
risen by about two millimetres per year since the beginning of the 20th century.
...
Analyses of TOPEX/POSEIDON altimetry data indicate that, in terms of global mean, sea level has risen by about
two millimetres per year since early 1993."
