Climate Change's Worst-Case Scenario: 200 Feet of Sea Level Rise


Burning all of the world's known fossil fuel reserves has a scary result: submerging New York, Tokyo, Shanghai and other cities, new research shows.

According to a new study from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, global temperatures would rise by an average of 12 degrees Celsius (22 degrees Fahrenheit) if we were to burn all fossil fuel resources on Earth. That would result in melt-off of the entire Antarctic ice sheet, and all the ice covering Greenland.

Few peer-reviewed study titles sound quite so much like a line spoken by the bad-news-bearing scientist from a dystopian sci-fi movie. But there it is. A real-world—and apparently very possible—dystopia.

ODU Professor Believes We Should Prepare for Worst-Case Sea Level Rise




[http://www.skepticalscience.com/sea-level-rise-predictions.htm How much will sea levels rise in the 21st century?]


What the science says...
● http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/the-point-of-no-return-climate-change-nightmares-are-already-here-20150805
Sea levels are rising faster now than in the previous century, and could rise between 50cm to 1.5 metres by 2100


Climate Myth... what climate change denial says...
● http://mic.com/articles/122701/damning-study-claims-earth-could-see-10-foot-sea-level-rise-in-just-50-years


Sea level rise predictions are exaggerated


"Professor Niklas Mörner, who has been studying sea level for a third of a century, says it is physically impossible for sea level to rise at much above its present rate, and he expects 4-8 inches of sea level rise this century, if anything rather below the rate of increase in the last century. In the 11,400 years since the end of the last Ice Age, sea level has risen at an average of 4 feet/century, though it is now rising much more slowly because very nearly all of the land-based ice that is at low enough latitudes and altitudes to melt has long since gone." (Christopher Monckton)
