How Fast Are Sea Levels Changing?
Tuesday, 13 August 2013 | by Pat's Picks
We can all pretty much agree that polar ice is melting and sea levels are rising. The real question for scientists: how fast? The New York Times cites one recently published paper, which estimates that given the pace we’re currently moving at, sea levels will rise by 23 feet by 2100. Those levels could be limited to seven feet if we enacted aggressive emissions standards immediately.
