Sea-level rise

mercredi 13 juin 2018 à 02:00

In 30 years, the amount of flooding from high tides has doubled in the US.

This is sea-level rise at work, and most of it is caused by global heating, so it will keep getting worse. As heating accelerates, the sea-level rise will also accelerate.

It is folly to choose to "adapt" to this with ever more costly partial measures. What we need to do is stop the actions that will lead to more sea-level rise.
