This is what sea level rise will do to coastal cities
Sea level rise is already redrawing coastlines around the world. What happens when the coast retreats through a major city? We look at how the world map will change in the year 2100, and what coastal cities can do to defend themselves.
Correction: An early version of this video suggested that researchers expect to see four feet of sea level rise by the end of the century. While researchers do expect to see at least that level of sea level rise in the future, the exact timing is difficult to project. We regret the error.

How else do you think life in coastal cities will have to change to cope with sea level rise?
The sky is falling, the sky is falling! This fearmongering is based on the assumption that it will keep warming for the next 78 years (2100). A lot can change in that amount of time, technology, societal, climate, populations…etc. Go back and look at predictions for the future from 1944 (78 years ago), for population, technology, society, business…etc. We can't forecast the weather more than 5 or 6 days out because the atmosphere is too complex. How can anyone believe they can predict the climate over three quarter of a century from now? Ridiculous!!!!
Nobody thinks climate change isn't a real thing we are telling you that it's not humans causing it and the planet would actually benefit from a degree or two warmer. These people are insane virtue signaling griffters this is nothing new it's been going on for decades and nothing they say ever comes true.
The costal cities deserve to be underwater. The homeless and drug addicts will either drown or get a free bath. I love climate change ❤
Thank the new Supreme Count!!
Reminder that climate change will affect the poor the most
Professor Mörner was a hands-on scientist. He did not enjoy squatting in his ivory tower. He liked to travel the world investigating sea level by the novel method of actually going to the coastline and having a look.
On one occasion, when the climate Communists were reporting that Bangladesh was subsiding beneath the rising waves, he went on a fact-finding trip to Bangladesh with a group of fellow sea-level specialists. All the others were true-believers, so they just drifted along with the Party Line and took few measurements.
Only the Professor not only used his altimeter but walked 100 meters uphill, in his late 70s, and back down again so that the instrument would be correctly calibrated. Only the Professor subsequently reported that, as a result of those measurements, sea level off Bangladesh was actually falling. Only the Professor reported that in the few beaches where the sea had encroached, it had done so not because of global warming and consequent sea-level rise but because local prawn farmers had grubbed up the mangroves whose roots had previously kept the coastline stable.

The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil
On another occasion Professor Mörner was visiting the Maldives when he noticed a small tree, 40 years old, right on the beach, in leaf but lying on its side. The fact that the tree was still there, feet from the ocean and inches above sea level, after 40 years told him that there had been no sea-level rise since the tree had first begun to grow, or it would have been drowned.
He enquired locally about whether there had been an exceptional spring tide caused by global warming and sea-level rise that had overthrown the tree. He discovered, however, that a group of Australian environmental extremists had visited the beach shortly before him. They had realized that the presence of the tree showed that the official sea-level record showing a sharp rise over the past half-century must be incorrect, and had uprooted the tree. Professor Mörner stood it back up again and photographed it.
He was plainly very distressed by incidents such as this, for he was a highly moral man with a strong regard for the truth. He took each of the numerous lies and frauds perpetrated by climate Communism as a personal affront, and was saddened at the widespread decline in scientific standards, particularly in the universities.
solution is flood Ded Sea, Lac Assal, Danakil Depresion, Qattara Depresion
Tanks for Imperialisem . Not
Sea levels are failing though
"once you unplug a freezer, it's unplugged" ah yes
The BILLIONAIRES
ARE NOT GONNA INVEST IN THIS
WE DONT NEED THEM
Walls are good but for the WATER PUMPS
CASTLE ISLAND RO CHELSEA
ISLANDS NEED TO
1-10 YEARS IS NY ESTIMATE
Our small bays and island vreakup
i will have beach front house one day lmao the rest of you better learn to swim
"Its one of the few projects online designed to make the threat seem immediate." Aaahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Junk Science.
Terrorism from UNO…
Correcting the high rise of water is GIANT WATER PUMPS OT IN THE WATER STRATEGY IS A PENNY OF COURSE
590 hundredth the water tank is t
You can't stop if you don't spend money.billions it gonna cost
PUMPS ARE REAL GOOD FOR THE WHOLE WORLD
ARTIFICIAL ISLANDS AND SOME PUMP'S
SOLARIZMZED
Artificial islands in the ocean and beating and controlled by pumps withe some controlled by i
Dangerous mis information
The best defense is to end global warming by any means necessary. But the paradox of our current system, is that each city would rather "dam the ocean", than actually be taxed for carbon capture technology they don't profit from. We deserve it, and can thank Capitalism.
Yes climate change is very big but that much damage would be like 2 million years from now
Climate has been changing for billions of years stop your scaremongering these scientists have been paid by the government to scare us about climate and the globe getting warmer… I watched quite a few documentaries about this that have been lying to us about many things and climate change is one of them 😉😉
Nothing happened did it! Clown
When can I book an underwater tour of The Netherlands?
