Tldr: 3-6 ft of sea level rise is inevitable, which will result in at least 230 million climate refugees fleeing coastal areas around the world. At this point the Greenland and West Antarctic ice sheets are almost guaranteed to collapse, which will result in 40 ft of sea level rise and more than a billion climate refugees. And the only thing cutting carbon admissions now will do is slow the rate at which the world warms and give these refugees more time to escape the coasts.
Slowing that rate is still worth doing. And there’s still hope to limit the damage. But what a wonderful world we’ve bequeathed to our children, huh?
40 ft is 12.192 metres for anyone that thinks in colour.
I told my fiancé we need to head for the hills now and beat the rush.
The rate of global sea level rise doubled during the past three decades… Pre-1990s it was 2 mm a year. Now it’s 5 mm a year. They reckon by 2050 it will be 1 cm a year or more.
Sea level is a Chinese hoax. It doesn’t even exist. I can’t see any level, nowhere. See? It doesn’t exist. Told you so.
I’m holding a level right here
Please. Please use the sarcasm tag if you’re ironically taking a political position. Seriously, it’s how 4chan brought back nazis
Sarcasm tags are a Chinese hoax. Do you see any sarcasm tags here? You don’t. Because they are a Hoax. A Chinese hoax. Told you so.
