If we delete all of this data and fire and muzzle the scientists, then the problem will go away.
Better yet, let’s hold a presidential press briefing and the stupid things that will be said will distract us for a month and make us forget about the slow collapse of our civilization
…slow?
This Is taking too long dammit!
I believe South Carolina has a law like this for coastal regions.
Because it impacted beach house sales.
I’m sure the insurance companies are woke and aware of this.
wow. an inch every four years about and the rate is still rising. So a foot in 48 years which might sound long but its no longer oh that is beyond my lifetime type of thing.
That’s the rise, but imagine the increased rate of erosion. It will get above the rocks and start carving away at beaches and lakefront properties. Rich people’s real estate investments are about to be devalued.

Good. We can finally eat them then.
Personally I’d rather feed them to our cats…I’m veggie and they probably don’t taste nice.
One main point is also: this is not a linear function. So ober 48 years you won’t get 48 x 0.23". The rise accelerates as climate change accelerates.
yeah and we are about half a foot as it stands so within 20 years should be there if not sooner. We already see so many effects were we are at now.
No one will care enough until they’re screwed sadly
Oh no if only someone had warned us 30 years ago…
No problem just sell your house to aquaman
TIL NASA is woke.
(/s shouldn’t be required but here we are…)
Mar-a-lago is 15 feet above sea level.
Edit: some of the grounds are at 4 feet.
“The Radical Left Lunatics™©® have Flooded the Great Mar-a-lago! I hereby declare the left a terrorist organization! The Climate Hoax is Fake News, Joseph Stalin Biden Flooded Mar-a-lago not the ocean!”
Exponential functions are a bitch
And we are still on the gradual incline side of it too, not the steep part.
NASA blamed the rise mostly on the expansion of ocean water as it warms, a process known as thermal expansion. In recent years, approximately two-thirds of sea level rise resulted from land-based ice melt, while one-third was due to thermal expansion. However, in 2024, this trend reversed — thermal expansion accounted for two-thirds of the rise.
TIL
Shit they’re going to get targeted with funding cuts due to this excellent research
That’s how momentum works …
