Sea level rise is natural. To argue that sea level rise is not negates any facts regarding events since the last ice age.
This site is very interesting.

The trick is to look for places that have been tracking a long time. Then you see the past and present in proper perspective.
The one I picked has data back to 1807. Based upon data...does one see sea level rise a phenomenon of today only? Was sea level rising in the past?
Also one needs to know that other factors affect sea level measurements such as changes in location and methodology as well as sinking sea bed or rising sea bed. Tectonics play a part. Also what the make up of the sea floor and below. Island atolls are prone to sinking due to erosion and compaction. Volcanic islands also tend not to be static.
Look around the map link and you will even find places that sea levels are plummeting.
