Majority of people live near the coasts and our economy depends on marine transportation. A 3m rise in sea level would render most of our coastal infrastructure useless. Which means even if you live on himalayas you'll be affected by it.
Hurricane Katrina rendered coastal infrastructure useless from New Orleans to Pensacola Fl. As soon as this happened we all waived the white towels and gave up our homes and businesses. No one lives in those cities today. We lost. It’s over.

I’m so sorry you have to feel so helpless. It’s a terrible way to feel. But take heart-we (the scientists) still know so little about these things, they get it wrong all the time. Remember that Nobel Prize winner, Al Gore, his predictions have proven to be COMPLETELY WRONG. His mistake was making predictions that weren’t centuries away, so he was proven wrong before his Nobel prize even needed dusting.
Remember when everyone was inside for like 2 weeks and how much air pollution went down? Remember the people of India could see Himalayan mountains for the first time in like 25 years? What happened to that? I would like a habitable world for my grand children and yours.

Watch the beginning of the video. It shows basically "half" of Antartica and says it contains enough ice to raise the ocean 3 meters. Then it says the glacier (which is just a very small part of that half) is in trouble. Oceans aren't going to rise 3 meters. They want to scare you. You want to be scared. Stop being so dramatic.
Pretty sure evidence has overwealmingly shown the sea isn’t rising at all, and I’m pretty sure there’s more glacier now than there was 5-10-20 years ago according to nasa. Also that ozone hole got smaller..... that’s why we stopped hearing about it. Global warming turned out to be a mad overreaction hence why Greta thunberg became a full blown anarchist the moment Antifa started throwing bricks at black businesses.
aaronison First off Earth is warming due to human activity. The debate is over. Now the debate is trying to fix it. Also let me ask you these questions. Yes Earth climate has changed in the past but tell me this: 1. What caused those changes? 2. How fast were they? 3. What were the impacts of that change? Just because Earths climate has always changed doesn’t mean the current warming is a threat to worry about. During the last interglacial period in the Emian 125,000 years ago. Earths temperature was 1-2°C warmer than today (today=1950 levels in PaloClimatology Earth was warmed 1°C so far since 1950 due human activity) and sea levels were 6m (18ft) higher than today. Now this didn’t immediately happen took thousands of years. But that’s one example on why past climate changes mean bad news for the current rapid global warming.
Well, they said that to become a Type 1 civilization, we must be able to see all of our planet's energy. That's what humans are doing without thinking about the consequences.
Mars isn't realy feasible in the long run. We might be able to send humans to Mars but at the expense of those people getting cancer. The atmosphere of Mars isn't the same as Earth so all of the solar radiation will hit humans way quicker than they would on earth. This *can* be mediaited by using lead but that becomes highly unfeasible knowing how thick the walls, roof, etc would have to be.
C02 is 0.04 % of the atmosphere and one of the least volatile greenhouse gases, accounting for an estimated 0.001% of warming. The mediaeval warm period was hotter than today. The rate at which it is getting warmer is also not unprecedented. The phenomenon we are seeing is typical and predictable by understanding solar cycles in particular. Air pollution is a major problem such as when we were dumping cfcs in the ozone layer. According to NASA, the greatest side effect of dumping mass amounts of c02 in the air has been a greening of our planet through photosynthesis. Humans have a lot to be blamed for, global warming is not one of them.
@randomguy8196 its not about living on mars. Its just that when we will see few humans traveling at a speed of thousands of miles per second for 6 months covering 100+ million km , landing on it for the first time and seeing two moons and blue sunset. These are the things that gives me goosebumps
I think they left with that optimistic music as a hope. I mean you can't just keep giving bad news one after the other. We need music to heal too! Btw What is the name of outro music?
The biggest problem about sea level rise is nobody knows when it’s actually going to happen as “scientists” have been claiming it’s gonna happen for decades but all the same beaches and coastlines are still here and unchanged.
Same can be said about the Amazon Rainforest. Claudio Villas Boas quoted a study claiming that the Amazon Rainforest would be decimated by the year 2000. Fortunately, he was wrong.
I imagine history books in a couple hundred years being like, “humans took way too long to recognize, admit, and fix climate change, and now because of it, this city that used to be called Miami no longer exists.”
we are progressing erosion & evolution faster then nature does in a span of thousands of year instead all that could be consequential in just a hundred years or less. Point is we are changing mother earths landscape at a rapid pace with this burning gases into our atmosphere
It makes me sad that this realization has been around since the middle of the 20th century. There is a critical mass of people on the planet that are either incapable of understanding, unwilling to understand, or understand but don't care. I am afraid the solution to climate change is humanity's extinction. Was nice knowing everyone.
*Let's be real.* There's more than enough landmass left for people even if all of Antarctica melts; climate change ain't gonna be extincting anything that has to do with people.
@Toughen Up, Fluffy Biodiversity is the biological variety and variability of life on Earth. Biodiversity is a measure of variation at the genetic, species, and ecosystem level. Terrestrial biodiversity is usually greater near the equator, which is the result of the warm climate and high primary productivity. Biodiversity is not distributed evenly on Earth, and is richer in the tropics. These tropical forest ecosystems cover less than ten percent of earth's surface, and contain about ninety percent of the world's species. Marine biodiversity is usually higher along coasts in the Western Pacific, where sea surface temperature is highest, and in the mid-latitudinal band in all oceans. There are latitudinal gradients in species diversity. Biodiversity generally tends to cluster in hotspots, and has been increasing through time, but will be likely to slow in the future as a primary result of deforestation. It encompasses the evolutionary, ecological, and cultural processes that sustain life.Wikipedia
aaronison while that is true do note during the ice age there wasn’t many humans and they did have major cities everywhere. We are warming Earth so fast we may not be able to adapt to it. But that’s centuries away. Until the meantime we’ll just see more extreme weather
Eh, most likely not. But people seem to get some weird kind of solace from thinking humans are evil and doomed. If you want to become an adult, read books like Apocalypse Never.
aaronison YES Earth has been warmer in the past. But that doesn’t mean the current global warming isn’t something to worry about. IT IS! Global Temperatures and CO2 levels are the highest in the at least the last million years. Also what caused Earth to be warmer in the past? The answer isn’t hard
Even with all our technology and the inventions that make modern life so much easier than it once was, it takes just one big natural disaster to wipe all that away and remind us that, here on Earth, we're still at the mercy of nature.
This is not a natural disaster. This is a disaster we are making, in full awareness of the torture we're inflicting on ourselves (well, mostly on poor people who did the least to create the crisis) and our descendants.
It's not a natural disaster, it's caused by humans, global warming, eco-collapse and glacier retreats, if we had regulated our output, non of this would have gone this bad, we had done half way to the tipping point but we had slowed a bit down recently, but not fast enough, coal plants is being built and fossil fuel is still getting burnt
If you fill a glass with ice and water and the ice melts, does it overflow? If the ice is floating on the water, is it not displacing the same amount of water?
If glaciers were already *in* the ocean, that ignorant denialist lie would work. But glaciers are on land, melting and sliding towards the coast. Get it? Try this accurate analogy: if you fill a glass with water and then drop an ice cube into it, it displaces water and its level goes up.
I'm not sure we can stop it. Most scientists believe we are past the point of no return. Even if all humans get exterminated the globe will continue to get hotter. Which means Antarctica will still melt and the oceans will still rise. Best we can do is slow it down and hope our future generations can cool the weather.
Why should we? Antarctica was a jungle long after dinosaurs went extinct and BEFORE humans. Cores drilled through Antarctic ice have proven this with NO doubt.
@@absurdandy4122 of course we can't stop it, it's happening naturally, as it has been for centuries, without any input from human activity. Man made global warming is a scam and a lie. It's been pushed by the same lunatics that 30 years ago they were pushing global cooling. Man made global warming is based on junk science. Period.
The ice-burg split due to seismic activity, not the cause of climate change, the Ice-burg cracked cause Antartica has a lot of seismic activity and In the passed weeks the whole world has been shaking deep below, have a plan in case of an earthquake we are overdue for an earthquake. The glacier is a sign of a possible earthquake don’t quote me on that
Majority of people are worried about Antartica, but as someone who studied glaciers, Greenland actually contributes more to sea level rise than the entire Antartica. If Greenland completely melts, which won't take much time, the Maldives will be completely underwater.

While it is a great idea to keep earth as clean as possible and take care of it, the reason for doing that is not climate change. Until we advance to a type 1 civilisation we will have no control over this. Please stop blindly believing the media.
Very much so. It's sad and worrying that the generations before us have exploited earth so ruthlessly, and we are the ones that need to work so very much to heal the effects of it all. But i think there is hope as long as everyone thinks so and does their part in all this. There is hope!
The UN itself can't force countries to do anything, it can write an angry letter but it doesn't have jurisdiction to force governments to do anything about climate change.
When I think about how close we are to the point of no return, I poop myself a little. Not even exaggerating that much. If things don't change quickly, the future will be terrifying.
if the world gets warmer, doesnt that mean places like northern canada would be habitable. and if ppl really wanted it to get colder, cant u just send off a bunch of nukes to make it colder
It's clear we're impacting the climate, and may tip systems into cycles of change we can't predict, but the volume of ice and the suggested sea level rise in this video seem disproportionate.
Well, then, there are some scientific papers about that. Go read them, and all the maths behind. Or just watch the video from the people that actually read those.
It's because of the controversial nature of the subject, people in the know are realizing they can't tell the masses about what they find. If they sound the alarm and a politician disagrees with them it would destroy their careers, so you have to do research on a large scale in order to find the truth in this world today. The numbers don't add up because the Earth is doing all the heavy lifting right now and when it stops meaning when the ice breaks or melts off of the land it will increase the ocean mass . That's what is causing the calculations to be erroneous, it's going to be like throwing a softball in a five gallon bucket.

Become extinct. That's a good start😂, but really I was just thinking about how so so many places on Earth have no water. How the people there desperately need water. On different levels of urgency of course. Is there a way we could take the increasing amount of water and bring it to the places that need it? Because in many places the lack of water means no food, which then in turn means starvation and death. Someone in a high place must've thought of this! The reason why none of it has happened is because all the governments are cheap and don't want to lose money. They'd rather their grandchildren and great grandchildren suffer!
If my understanding is correct, There’s more to worry about than just sea level rise, but also the salinity of the oceans will be affected as well as the oceans currents which will affect sea life and earths climate...

Try this at home, in a glass cup put water halfway then add a few cubes of ice, mark the level of the water now, then wait till ice melts and see if the level went up or stayed the same. My hypothesis is that it will stay the same unless we mark the water level before the ice was added. Similar example to that being shown here but at small scale.
How much of your ice is above the water at start. Imagine filling glass 1/4 with water then top off with ice. Pretty sure the water level is going to rise.😉
Forget politicians. Stop supporting the meat industry, it's the single biggest thing you can do to prevent deforestation and farming.

Then it says the glacier (which is just a very small part of that half) is in trouble. Oceans aren't going to rise 3 meters. They want to scare you. You want to be scared. Stop being so dramatic.

And still, we debate whether climate change is a reality or not!🤦♂️
I think most people agree it has always changed. :)
Bryan Hann while yes Earth has always warmed and cooled. Never this fast.

First off Earth is warming due to human activity. The debate is over. Now the debate is trying to fix it.
Also let me ask you these questions. Yes Earth climate has changed in the past but tell me this:
1. What caused those changes?
2. How fast were they?
3. What were the impacts of that change?
Just because Earths climate has always changed doesn’t mean the current warming is a threat to worry about.
During the last interglacial period in the Emian 125,000 years ago. Earths temperature was 1-2°C warmer than today (today=1950 levels in PaloClimatology Earth was warmed 1°C so far since 1950 due human activity) and sea levels were 6m (18ft) higher than today. Now this didn’t immediately happen took thousands of years. But that’s one example on why past climate changes mean bad news for the current rapid global warming.

A masterpiece to tell something about an unkown factor.
On one hand I feel lucky to live in this age as i can see humans landing on mars but on the other hand humans digging there own grave
Well, they said that to become a Type 1 civilization, we must be able to see all of our planet's energy. That's what humans are doing without thinking about the consequences.
Mars isn't realy feasible in the long run.
We might be able to send humans to Mars but at the expense of those people getting cancer. The atmosphere of Mars isn't the same as Earth so all of the solar radiation will hit humans way quicker than they would on earth.
This *can* be mediaited by using lead but that becomes highly unfeasible knowing how thick the walls, roof, etc would have to be.
C02 is 0.04 % of the atmosphere and one of the least volatile greenhouse gases, accounting for an estimated 0.001% of warming. The mediaeval warm period was hotter than today. The rate at which it is getting warmer is also not unprecedented. The phenomenon we are seeing is typical and predictable by understanding solar cycles in particular. Air pollution is a major problem such as when we were dumping cfcs in the ozone layer. According to NASA, the greatest side effect of dumping mass amounts of c02 in the air has been a greening of our planet through photosynthesis. Humans have a lot to be blamed for, global warming is not one of them.
@randomguy8196 its not about living on mars. Its just that when we will see few humans traveling at a speed of thousands of miles per second for 6 months covering 100+ million km , landing on it for the first time and seeing two moons and blue sunset. These are the things that gives me goosebumps

@Toughen Up, Fluffy Biodiversity is the biological variety and variability of life on Earth. Biodiversity is a measure of variation at the genetic, species, and ecosystem level. Terrestrial biodiversity is usually greater near the equator, which is the result of the warm climate and high primary productivity. Biodiversity is not distributed evenly on Earth, and is richer in the tropics. These tropical forest ecosystems cover less than ten percent of earth's surface, and contain about ninety percent of the world's species. Marine biodiversity is usually higher along coasts in the Western Pacific, where sea surface temperature is highest, and in the mid-latitudinal band in all oceans. There are latitudinal gradients in species diversity. Biodiversity generally tends to cluster in hotspots, and has been increasing through time, but will be likely to slow in the future as a primary result of deforestation. It encompasses the evolutionary, ecological, and cultural processes that sustain life.Wikipedia

Also what caused Earth to be warmer in the past? The answer isn’t hard

If you fill a glass with ice and water and the ice melts, does it overflow? If the ice is floating on the water, is it not displacing the same amount of water?
My exact thoughts
You would be right if the thing being talked about in the video was an iceberg, but it's not it's a glacier. Know the difference
If glaciers were already *in* the ocean, that ignorant denialist lie would work. But glaciers are on land, melting and sliding towards the coast. Get it?
Try this accurate analogy: if you fill a glass with water and then drop an ice cube into it, it displaces water and its level goes up.
The ice protruding above the water ...once it melts...will increase the water level.
Best part is that we’ve known about this and have been able to stop this for decades now...
Worst part...
So how do you stop, 'it'?
I'm not sure we can stop it. Most scientists believe we are past the point of no return. Even if all humans get exterminated the globe will continue to get hotter. Which means Antarctica will still melt and the oceans will still rise. Best we can do is slow it down and hope our future generations can cool the weather.
Why should we? Antarctica was a jungle long after dinosaurs went extinct and BEFORE humans. Cores drilled through Antarctic ice have proven this with NO doubt.
@@absurdandy4122 of course we can't stop it, it's happening naturally, as it has been for centuries, without any input from human activity. Man made global warming is a scam and a lie. It's been pushed by the same lunatics that 30 years ago they were pushing global cooling.

@Artour Babiev I'll see you all down in Arizona Bay
I'm not an engineer or a scientist is any shape or form, but a question - in addition to slowing and stopping its collapse through addressing climate change, are there other man made interventions that we could do to extremely slow the collapse?
Kids no longer care about investing in future generations, only consuming during their lifetime. If curiosity gets spread on platforms like Tik Tok there could be a movement but nature does not wait we have made grave mistakes and now we must take the consequences. Let's keep love high
Become extinct. That's a good start😂, but really I was just thinking about how so so many places on Earth have no water. How the people there desperately need water. On different levels of urgency of course. Is there a way we could take the increasing amount of water and bring it to the places that need it? Because in many places the lack of water means no food, which then in turn means starvation and death. Someone in a high place must've thought of this! The reason why none of it has happened is because all the governments are cheap and don't want to lose money. They'd rather their grandchildren and great grandchildren suffer!
@@lastcaress1314 youre basically asking for desalination tech, its getting developed but who knows how long till the people who need it can get it
Yes there are
Scientists made a machine that they will place in antartica and it will freze the water idk if it will work tho
If my understanding is correct, There’s more to worry about than just sea level rise, but also the salinity of the oceans will be affected as well as the oceans currents which will affect sea life and earths climate...
I'm 15 and have only been aware of climate change for a few years and am trying to do everything I can to help stop it. By then I see adults who have known about it for decades but still don't seem to care about it. I just don't see how an entire planet covered by water in a century or so isn't scary
Because its happened before hundreds of times throughout the entirety life has been on earth for billions of years. This is just another climate change, stop trying to fight it.
@@jackguppy253 what do you mean?
@@jackguppy253 Stop spreading misinformation.
We are already seeing the effects of our CO2 emissions.
Stronger hurricanes and melting ice sheets are just the start of it.
You know it's weird when a house next to the sea is more expensive?
For now. Once it is accurately known when various properties will be going underwater then those properties will lose their value real fast.
Yah why would banks approve 30 year loans for oceanfront properties?
@@ninjafruitchilled odd how all those properties that have supposed to have been underwater already are instead having construction booms instead. 🤔🤣
@@M0rmagil They aren't supposed to have been underwater already. No scientists ever claimed that. You need to stop getting your climate science from Fox News.
These questions are what really needs answers
Sea level rise, just another thing that makes being alive right now just simply marvellous
Remember: it would take decades even centuries for extreme sea level rise. Doesn’t mean would shouldn’t stop Global Warming, but it’s not just something to stress about, my we still need to act, or future generations will risk extinction.
Being underwater will be preferable to frying. THAT is what's coming!
@@superstormthunder3 Extintion is an exaggeration, but it's way smarter (and cheaper) to prevent this problems or to solve them as soon as possible
18,000 years of sea level rise and counting.
APC 219 yea true, but we’re expecting a warming of 4°C by 2100 and possibly 10°C by 2200 which has not been seen on earth for millions of years. So life would definitely get harder

*When this has been a problem YEARS AGO*
This has been a problem since humans started making large amounts of Co2
we started making cow farms
@@Milk-ew4pf think big! The sun! Underground volcanoes... Lava spills! Blaming people is absurd!!!! Wormwood! Cosmic billiards!!!! Earth's magnetic field waxes and wanes!!!! Allowing gamma rays in!!!! Trump build a wall????? To do what???? Honduras is a land bridge! It will be under water!!!!
So why did banks loan Obama money to buy a mansion ON THE COAST if the sea is gonna rise?
Nah. It's not a problem. It's all a lie
Try this at home, in a glass cup put water halfway then add a few cubes of ice, mark the level of the water now, then wait till ice melts and see if the level went up or stayed the same. My hypothesis is that it will stay the same unless we mark the water level before the ice was added. Similar example to that being shown here but at small scale.
A glass is too small of a sample size because only so much can float above the surface
How much of your ice is above the water at start. Imagine filling glass 1/4 with water then top off with ice. Pretty sure the water level is going to rise.😉
Forget politicians. Stop supporting the meat industry, it's the single biggest thing you can do to prevent deforestation and farming. Your demand matters, think about how much meat one person eats in a year. You control demand with what you put on your plates. Then go about reducing flights where possible, reducing waste etc.
Its getting worse with the fast increase of the population. It amazes me to see families bringing up 4+ children. Selfish if you ask me
People shoud take composting seriously. Like every household and condominiums should have composting system in their areas. So landfills would not fill up too fast. Thus gas emissions would decrease dramatically. Imagine if all of us are doing it.
For all of humanity we have been eating me I agree cleaning up the industry would help but we can’t just stop eating meat where omnivores not herbivores
@@senna503 Yeah but being omnivores means we can be completely healthy just eating plants. Do you have netflix? Check out the Game Changers. It's about athletes and regular people going plant based because it's providing them with faster muscle recovery and endurance. Secondly, you don't have to cut meat out entirely if you want to transition. If you are 95% plat based, that already makes a huuuuge impact. Happy to chat more if you like
@@jessw391 you have to understand not everyone has the luxury to be educated on these topics. Poor families tend to have the biggest families due to a number of socioenviromental reasons that we must address. We need to change the way we produce our products, telling people to change their way of life isn't going to work, its just not practical.
Thwaites Glacier started to melt
2020: There is another....
I mean it’s not like this problem just started last night lol, Global Warming or Climate Change has been going on for as long as I can remember!!
2030: it's my time to shine
I'm just hyped to see a documentary on abandoned underwater cities.
bruh same HAHAHAHA
This was short and simple. That means it’s much more a threat than they could reveal at the end of the presentation.
It's a video like these that make me pause my anxiety over Covid and remember that this is coming for us in the long run
The biggest worry I have about covid is that its making people forget about climate change. Felt like we were starting to gain momentum then bam, virus and BLM protests. Don't get me wrong, two extremely important issues but also climate change means death and displacement for WAAY more
@@wipmegrandma8780 You can still keep advocating for action on climate change, also even though a lot of the world really didn't respond effectively to the virus if we put as much action into stopping the effects of climate change we wouldn't be in this situation which gets me even angrier.
Don't forget: they were scaring you with a new global ice age just 30 years ago. All you have to do is live your life responsibly, today. Who knows what's going to come in another 30 years
@@MrJohannson It is true that things get exaggerated but I feel like there's a lot to do with environmentalism that is just too irrefutable to deny like the decline in forest coverage. Either way, encouraging others to look after the planet can't ever be a bad thing
Covid isnt a real problem honestly, I mean it obviusly is and you should protect yourself and others but humans will survive whit a *relatively* small price to pay and it can also be recovered.
Climate change on the other hand...
I live in Connecticut on the Long Island Sound. My neighbor from Taiwan, just the other day, had a friend who lives by a river in China, that is normally of a yellow color this means it's full of nutrients causing the crops to grow bountiful. Of late the River's water has become clear and the crops are not growing so well. I told her maybe the river is now getting enormous melt off from a glacier upstream. She also mentioned the sea water was not as salty.
Or maybe the horrible pollution in China is making the river toxic?
@@e-curb Or maybe that river has been naturally yellow?
That might be why the river is called the *Yellow* River
*sea level might increase 3 meters*
landlocked countries: I see this as an absolute win!
lol
*Laughs is Uzbek* (and Liechtenstein)
Oh ya. The global refugee crisis will be so fun for those landlocked countries.
Saharan Desert: where the heck did these people come from?
Maybe they will not be landlocked anymore after the 3 meters rise in sea level.
By only imagining this situation, it gives me chills😭
There is bacteria in that ice that has been dormant for billions of years.. "hello man kind, you are dead."
No wonder it's also known as the "Doomsday Glacier" in the Wikipedia... We're really doomed..
In 300 years we will be worried about a rogue AI declaring independence or a Martian dictator, not about 3-meter sea level rise.
Mic_Glow Bold of you to assume that life will still be present in 300 years
well for all we know (not in our life time) but they could of started life on another earth like planet
"once it starts to collapse it wont stop" said my marriage
Born and raised in Miami in 1947. Fishing and boating are all I like to do, so I’m more than a little familiar with the coastline around Miami and the upper keys. I have seen ZERO signs of rising water. If you don’t want to believe me take a vacation to the keys and talk to the commercial fishermen. Then go home a start following the money.
World: Reducing carbon emissions?? Well, guess we'll have to do without Miami
