Noah and his advisor... in case you want to check on whether or not you need to build an Ark, check out the following website to check on your house... coast.noaa.gov/slr/ Eric Morris, did us all a great favor!

Excellent talk! So proud!

Really informative and enjoyable talk! Great job Eric!

So if we are an hour from the coast in Oregon are we ok?

I live in Holland and nobody is gonna sell because of sea level rise.

You are ready for 1 meter more because you can built dams. Florida cant it is a limestome sponge. A dam holds nothing there.

When I read this, I sat there thinking WTF, "Over the past 20 years, ocean basins have sunk an average of 0.004 inches per year. This means that the ocean is 0.08 inches deeper than it was two decades ago." The article went on to discuss why ocean levels did not rise.

when we bought our house, I recorded lat/long and elev. the elev was 910, is now 909.....but neighbors say there's no sea level change, because djt said it's all a hoax. *sigh*

you fail to mention your location? But thats not important, especially if youre in Florida, where subsidience has been evident. No rise that I can see on the mighty pacific, however. Im viewing it RIGHT NOW, as I have been for 50 years now. You blowhards should worry more about our PLASTIC PROBLEM, AND FUKUSHIMA. If you are so CONCERNED, why do you IGNORE THESE FACTS?

We are still ill repaired to keep sea level from our coastal shores.

So if the SLR in Charleston is about 3mm per year, then that means we will have 90 years to adapt to a 1foot rise, then 180 years to adapt to a 2 foot rise, and 270 years to adapt to a 3 foot rise. No problem. The Dutch have done far more than that already.

You make some assumptions that are not based on available data. The rate of sea level rise is changing as it is accelerating and not only that, the rate of acceleration is itself accelerating.

@Elite7555

You assume linear growth, but as more and more land becomes ice free (and therefore absorbes sun light) and the CO2 level in the atmosphere rises, this growth accelerates. You know the story with the chess board and doubling rice corns on every field? That's how accelerated growth looks like.

@wannabetowasabe

Growth of anything is not a matter of simply adding a rate of increase to the same original amount year after year. To illustrate let's take a look at the growth of investments from the financial world. To calculate the doubling time of an investment the number 70 is divided by the annual percentage rate of earnings. Example, you have an account (principal) of $10,000 you invest where you earn 3.5%. 70/3.5 = 20. So in 20 years your principal grows to $20,000 at the somewhat small to moderate interest rate of 3.5%. Considering the rise in sea level in terms of percentage is pretty hard to conceive of, but the same principle of exponential growth still applies. In addition the 3mm per year in rise is increasing each year. So our example above is too simple, that 3.5% annual growth is changing each year so the rate of increase is not 3.5% the second year, it may be something like 3.509% the second year and 3.52% by the third year. By the fourth year the amount might be 3.536%. This by only raising the percentage by .009% to .016% each year. This is what I meant by not only is the sea rising the rate of increase is itself rising.

The accelerating rate of increase is significantly affected by feedback just as Elite7555 mentioned. Feedback develops in places with a large quantity of ice on land, the two major locations being Greenland and the Antarctic. One example is that ice typically darkens as it melts, which increases the amount of energy being absorbed by glaciers, which in turn increases the rate of melt.

Hey Chicken Little. You've only got a year to go. Maybe put more zeros after the 2.

so he's saying sea level in Charleston continues to rise at the same rate it has for 100 years . no one says sea level hasn't been rising for 1000's of years .

This video is 2 years old. 2 yeas ago was 2 016. 2020 is just around the corner, so next year is 2020. My qwestion is is it all ready too late for the U.S.A to act on and what can you expect. beause what you point out dose not go hand in hand with now. 2019.

yes, you have mentioned that repeatedly. Do I have an explanation? No, and I doubt you do either. If youre not corroborating this nonsense, verifying an observation, etc, youre just additional noise. I can see the pacific from my window, and its right where its been for 50 years, and youre not getting my property anytime soon!!

He is right the water level is rising. I don’t know much about how long it will take for the water to get into land but my Lord and Savior Jesús Christ said to me on 10/8/2019 All the ice on the North Pole has melted. If you grab on to Jesus not to religion. He will let you know of things to come.

Its another 3 feet by 2100. Welp, I don't think I'll be alive.

city gov't will pay for a stratospheric shield (edit: the shield would be over the ice sheets) (or sahara sea). governments fear nothing more than losing their reason for existing. This idea would be funded by an ad hoc organization of governments threatened by sea level rise. No shortage of donors. It is nice to be smug. :-) All kidding aside, spread this word around as fast as you can. Maybe it will make it to the scientists.

Doesn't look that bad to me, if it even happens

It’s funny that I can’t find Mr Englander’s scientific education background anywhere on the internet. All I find is that he’s a “sea level rise expert”. Doesn’t that bother anyone? It bothers me.

@fawnwoods51

Mr. Englander is not speaking as a scientist, but as a person who experiences sea level rise near where he lives. He's like the many people who are losing their homes which are falling into the surrounding waters: for example, houses in Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan are falling into Lake Michigan. The Lake is as high as it's ever been. They are speaking out like many others from Maryland, New York, New Jersey, California. And England and Canada. Just look on You Tube. The ocean in every part of the world is rising. And scientists talk about this in terms of melting glaciers and a warming ocean (warmer water takes up more space).

Because of their maritime histories, The USA and Britain have a higher proportion of their infrastructure built close to the coast and therefore vulnerable to sea-level rise compared with terrestrially focus nations with such capitals as Paris, Berlin, Moscow and Beijing. Funny then that the nationalist policies prevalent in parts of the Anglosphere have contributed to denial of climate caused sea-level rise. Because the massive cost of adapting to this slow moving disaster will cripple these countries most and perhaps lead to the eclipse of America's global role. A far sighted nationalist in the USA should surely be promoting global adaptation to climate change as a way of minimising the costs to the country. To those who deny climate change, I would say, look at Indonesia, it is having to relocate it's coastal capital, Jakarta due to flooding. The flooding is partly due to subsidence, but also due to sea-level rise...

Those who perish will go to another earth like planet, to carry on their learning. Those who survive here will go up a vibration with the new earth. Every one will be in their right pace, so no point worrying.

We know sea level has been rising for centuries. So much for man made global sea rise. We can't stop it he even admits it, "like death and taxes."
