As societies around the world continue emitting heat-trapping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, they face the consequence of sea level rise. Since 1900, sea levels have increased 8 inches on average globally, and by 2100, sea levels will likely rise between 1 and 4 feet (Sweet et al.

Planet Labs The resulting paper , recently published in Science, blames man-made global warming for the collapse. A century of greenhouse gasses heating up the atmosphere have eroded swaths of the Greenland ice sheet — frozen freshwater that holds back 23 feet of potential sea level rise.

New research focused on the mechanisms and rates of how snow and ice is lost to the ocean from the land, along with studies of past climates offer new insights into how much sea level may change in the coming years. Both approaches utilize computer models to further explore the relationship between sea level and climate.

Despite an unremitting stream of warnings and studies we still are not doing what we must to protect the natural world and keep temperatures from warming beyond critical upper temperature limits. In 2012 scientists warned us that our oceans are dying but we did not respond. Undeterred we continued to perpetrate genocide against nature.

The framing is intended to draw attention to the radical changes that global warming might bring. Bob Kopp, a co-author of the paper who researches climate change and sea level rise at Rutgers University, said that talking about tipping points, as scary as they are, might not inspire people to do something about climate change.

Motivated by New York Governor Cuomo’s willingness to consider banning hydrofracking, Jacobson worked through the night to layer New York’s pollution, human health, morbidity and global warming data into a cohesive model. He then added in the energy outputs from New York’s existing and potential WWS supplies.

Fifty years ago, climate models accurately predicted that greenhouse gases cause global warming (Hausfather et al, 2020). The WRI warned that we need to stop burning coal (Yang & Cui, 2012) and the IPCC synthesis report (2014) said that we must stop using fossil fuels. Special Report - Global Warming of 1.5°C
