Disastrous Sea Level Rise Is an Issue for Today's Public - Not Next Millennium's

. . . 2°C global warming, rather than being a safe "guardrail," is highly dangerous. . . .

. . . My conclusion, based on the total information available, is that continued high emissions would result in multi-meter sea level rise this century and lock in continued ice sheet disintegration such that building cities or rebuilding cities on coast lines would become foolish. . . .

. . . A startling conclusion of our paper is that effects of freshwater release onto the Southern Ocean and North Atlantic are already underway and 1-2 decades sooner in the real world than in the model (Fig. 2).

NASA Launches ‘Operation OMG’ After 10 Ft. Sea Level Rise Predicted Over Next 50 Yrs.

environews.tv - by Emerson Urry - August 16, 2015

Falling in line with an alarming new paper spearheaded by climate-science guru Dr. James Hansen, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has launched its own urgent five-year study — a project that will “stress-test” Hansen’s new, and downright dire predictions. The operation titled, “Oceans Melting Greenland” (OMG) will have a budget of $30m to expend on a quest to ascertain even more data on how fast the Arctic is melting — and on just how much the sea level will rise as a result. - http://environews.tv/world-news/nasa-launches-operation-omg-after-10-ft-sea-level-rise-predicted-over-next-50-yrs/
