Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted May 2, 2023 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted May 2, 2023 Of course it is. https://www.wired.com/story/as-sea-levels-rise-the-east-coast-is-also-sinking/ CLIMATE SCIENTISTS ALREADY know that the East Coast of the United States could see around a foot of sea-level rise by 2050, which will be catastrophic on its own. But they are just beginning to thoroughly measure a “hidden vulnerability” that will make matters far worse: The coastline is also sinking. It’s a phenomenon known as subsidence, and it’s poised to make the rising ocean all the more dangerous, both for people and coastal ecosystems. New research published in the journal Nature Communications finds that the Atlantic Coast—home to more than a third of the US population—is dropping by several millimeters per year. In Charleston, South Carolina, and the Chesapeake Bay, it’s up to 5 millimeters (a fifth of an inch). In some areas of Delaware, it’s as much as twice that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a foot of water rise is a big problem, you built a house in a stupid place. Sucks to be you. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger** Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 (edited) We can prove one thing they have not moved the rock after they put the structure around it. Or does anyone have any videos of them moving the rock? Whaleback Lighthouse in Kittery, Maine has stood in the same spot at the same sea level as it did back in 1880 when it was built for the second time due to storm damage.

akvanden Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 It would be extremely easy to build a 5 ft berm along the coast if needed. We forget about cities or entire parts of countries that are currently below sea level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
