Isle de Jean Charles Louisiana 2 feet above sea level. My guess is erosion from hurricanes like any other beach that gets eroded from storms but yes the sea level is rising as f7ben would say drrrrrrr

The Isle de Jean Charles was over 5 miles wide and 11 miles long, but today it has shrunk to 1/4 mile wide and 2 miles long.

The stupid place has been flooding for hundreds of years but yes climate change.

1876

Louisiana begins selling land on the isle to individuals. Previously, it had been labeled “uninhabitable swamp” and Native Americans were not allowed to purchase land.

How much land mass has disappeared under the sea since 1876 in this area?

That is what happens when multiple hurricanes flood the place year after year. Water erodes soil.

So hurricanes and floods didn’t happen prior millennia before inhabitants???  Hurricanes a new thing to the area that it wasn’t eroded before people got there and it lost 1000’s of acres in just 50-60 years.  The 1960’s is when the land started to get submerged.

I can guarantee you we could shut every coal plant down have everyone driving ev’s and we would change nothing!

It’s a cycle you fool. They knew it was uninhabitable in the 1800’s for Christ sake.

Not soil,just a big sand bar. 

Yup, I mean the freaking us government labeled it a SWAMP 150yrs ago but they seen they could make some money selling it so no more swamp status.
