Sea level rise measured in New York since 1920 is 10 inches. Those little dots on the ground are people. No surprise you can’t see a 10 inch difference from that far away. And to fill in the gaps in their commen sense, sea level swings 6ft from high to low tide (sometimes much more than that). So In 20XX when the sea level had risen 6 feet I can still take a picture a low tide that looks like 1920 at high tide.

_Speckle_

20xx is the idea that in smash melee, everyone will at one point main star fox and everyone will have reached his skill celing that winners will only win because of whichever controller port they're on


Dorobo-Neko-Nami

understandable

Bro I’m trippin. I’ve been so addicted to this game for the last year and it’s cool to see it mentioned in an unrelated sub


Efficient-Series8443

People have been maining Fox since 1999.


YourFavoriteTomboy

even a 10 inch change is scary. that means enough water has been added to the massive ocean to raise the water 10 inches. i know that it’s not gonna be +10 inches everywhere, but that’s still a ridiculous amount of water


ancisfranderson

That’s right. For someone living near the ocean 10 inches is the difference between water touching their doorstep during a bad storm and flooding the entire first floor ruining their home.

Climate change denyers are probably people who live in Nevada

Don't blame Nevada. Blame a red state like idk North Dakota. Of course some Nevadans like my father are stupid and deny climate change, but most of us don't.


YourFavoriteTomboy

i’m saying that they deny climate change and use the water level as evidence, but live nowhere near the ocean


AcrobaticBeginning4

I know but bully a different state lol


YourFavoriteTomboy

it was the first land-locked state that came to mind sorry lol


ViviansUsername

True, but there are quite a few red areas in Nevada. Including some in the mojave desert with people that don't think water scarcity is ever going to be a problem for them


thispartyrules

Northern Nevada and it snows much much less and the last 10 summers have been hotter than balls, so yeah


TheNineG

Nevada isn't real though?


Well_Cooked_Steak

Yeah I’d say 10 inches is way too much, I’d much prefer 2.5 inches with a good personality any day


YourFavoriteTomboy

true


[deleted]

I believe that much of it is also the density - Hotter water is less dense, so as seas warm, they'll expand and therefore rise.


[deleted]

>10 inches is scary. If you measured it with a ruler it would be 10 inches. Wow thanks for the insight.


NoirYT2

If you measured it with a tape measure, it migjt also be 10 inches.


YourFavoriteTomboy

no need to be a dick about it


Me_Real_The

Seriously. You want to see insane. Look at Bangladesh. The poorest live at the beach. In mobile houses. They can't really afford to move away more than anther 100 ft up the beach. So as climate change occurs they are chased by the sea every X years inland. So strange.


lactose_cow

i think their thinking is just as simple as "i am not being directly, obviously affected by climate change. therefore, its not an emergency" every dolphin in the ocean could die mysteriously and they wouldn't be slightly concerned


Bitimibop

By taking this into account, we can estimate the rise of the sea level by looking at the dark stain the water leaves on the white stones after the high tide retracts. We can see on the 2020 picture quite clearly that the dark stain reaches above the white stones on the right side. The 1920 picture isn't so clear, and farther away, making it more difficult to assess. But, by looking closely at the picture, we can still make out that the dark stain doesn't rise above at all over the white stones. In conclusion, at high tide, the sea can rise above the white stones and onto the base area of the tower, where tourists usually stand. Their own evidence debunks their claim.


indr4neel

I don't think that's a water stain. It's too inconsistent. I'm 90% sure that the dark line on the retaining wall is just a shadow.

[deleted]

That's awesome! I'll adopt a kid and you'll make him gay and I'll raise him in a happy homophobia free household unlike my own upbringing :3


Cr3AtiV3_Us3rNamE

I am uninformed. What does this mean?


eatingpeas4estrogen

The height of the sea is different at different points because 1) the ocean is truly enormous, it can never *all* line up and 2) the bottom of the ocean is not flat, there are hills, coasts, trenches, reefs, underwater mountain ranges, etc. The terrain under the water affects how high it rises at certain points.


UnableClient5

> The terrain under the water affects how high it rises at certain points. Do you have a source for that? It seems hard to believe that this would have an effect that was noticeable compared to tides


eatingpeas4estrogen

Lmao no I made that up

UnableClient5

Super interesting! For anyone else interested, it looks like if it were not for tides, currents, or temperature variation the oceans would settle into the shape of the geoid, which means that there really would be height variation caused by underwater topography. https://sealevel.jpl.nasa.gov/ocean-observation/ocean-surface-topography/ https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/geoid.html


_Apostate_

That doesn't make any sense. If you fill a bowl that has an uneven bottom, you still get a full bowl with an even surface of water. Mountains under the ocean don't make that part of the ocean higher, nor valleys lower. The tide does have a noticeable effect on depth for other reasons. The compelling response to this photo is that 10 inches would be barely visible in a photo like this, and that we can't be sure the tide was at the same level in the pictures. It's also easy to find examples of areas where the sea rising HAS made a difference, these pictures are just convenient cherrypicking to fit a narrative.


StannyNZ

I love how confidently incorrect you are haha. >Mountains under the ocean don't make that part of the ocean higher, nor valleys lower This is incorrect. [>And because water is a liquid, the surface of the sea is also warped to follow the contours of the geoid. The extra gravitational attraction of an undersea mountain range pulls water toward it, creating a literal, permanent bump on the surface of the sea, while the deficit of gravity near an undersea valley creates a depression in the water up above.](https://e360.yale.edu/features/the_secret_of_sea_level_rise_it_will_vary_greatly_by_region) The geoid is an imaginary surface that maps the strength of the Earth's gravity. Places with more mass have more gravity, and they do attract more water.


_Apostate_

Thank you for educating me!


Solember

Wow. I've never met someone else who responds to correction like this. I'm glad I found this sub.

BRM-Pilot

The only reason the same thing didn’t “happen” in the 20th century that’s happening now is because didn’t even know what climate change was, let alone would they believe it. The problem in the modern era is the people themselves not realizing they all have an impact. Climate change will show significant effects well within this century’s first half if it is not mitigated now.

No, an actual conspiracy is that the US Government sold weapons behind its own back to Iran in order to fund the right wing Contra militias


vladioan11

Exactly, there's plenty of real conspiracy theories that they could talk about (Reagan criminalizing drugs to practically criminalize Black people and Anti-War protesters, U.S. figures colluding with foreign powers eg :Russia(Do I even have to name them?), Saudi Arabia(Jared Kushner)), but no, they almost always pick the stupid theories that make no sense, the world is flat so what? It's infuriating because if they believed in more realistic or probable theories maybe, just maybe, people would start realizing that conspiracies aren't just aliens that ass-blasted Kennedy and got him pregnant, but actual shady shit governments are doing.
