Seas Are Rising at Fastest Rate in Last 28 Centuries - The New York Times
quote:
The oceans are rising faster than at any point in the last 28 centuries, and human emissions of greenhouse gases are primarily responsible, scientists reported Monday.
They added that the flooding that is starting to make life miserable in many coastal towns like Miami Beach; Norfolk, Va.; and Charleston, S.C. was largely a consequence of those emissions, and that it is likely to grow worse in coming years.
Ironically, I was just in Miami Beach this past weekend. Guess I should be thankful I live in Central Florida. We likely won't be underwater as quickly.
