Seven Meter Sea Rise: A Predictable, Worst-Case Scenario

Greenland Ice Sheet Melt Extent

The question of "Why Seven Meters" is a really good one. And there is a good answer for this. But the answer requires some preliminary work. Sea level changes every century as climate conditions change. After an ice age, sea level will rise as the glaciers shrink. As another ice age grows, sea level will fall as water is captured on the continents. Between ice ages, continents rise as well when released from the weight of thousands of feet of ice. Without human intervention, we would likely see the trend of slow sea level rise continue as it has for centuries.

Map of the eastern coast of the U.S. after 7 meters of rise

I was wondering if anyone had a map of the east coast of the United States, if the sea level were to rise 7 meters. I would like to try and do something involving lbline.org in my home town of Cambridge or even Boston, but would need this visual to figure out where the lines would go. Does anyone have any other ideas or concepts that could help me out? All is welcome...

lightblueline 3rd local meeting

The lightblueline action in Santa Barbara held its 3rd local meeting on Friday, August 25, at the University Club.

We had a several new painters: David Lea from UCSB, Marty Blum, mayor of Santa Barbara, and Darren Hardy from the Bren School. WELCOME!

Bruce gave a short Keynote presentation using slides from James Hansen's recent discussion with the National Academy of Science in DC.

One of the slides from Hansen's talk used data collected at UCSB by...David Lea! So David was able to tell us how the paleoclimate picture informs the current situation.

The action collaborative wrestled with a couple topics, including the date for the kickoff event, and the public story about "Seven Meters."
