No it isn't correct. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the temperature has risen by 1° Fahrenheit in the last 100 years and are predicting that by 2100 it will have risen anywhere between an extra 1.8&#176F to 6.3&#176F

That may not sound like a lot but, as you are aware, water expands when it warms and add this to the effects on the ice caps and you will see sea levels rise dramatically.
