00:04We've long heard that if humanity doesn't slow its carbon emissions by a certain amount by a certain date, we're
00:09in trouble.
00:10That's because our polar regions will melt, raising sea levels, acidifying our planet's waters, and throwing off ocean currents and
00:16chemistry.
00:17And that's just the tip of the iceberg, pun intended.
00:20But now a new NASA report indicates sea level rise is already happening, and it's more dramatic than we thought.
00:26Since just 1993, sea levels have risen more than 9 centimeters, or around 3.5 inches.
00:32That might not sound like much, but those levels are accelerating upwards as well.
00:36Between 2021 and 2022, sea levels rose 0.27 centimeters, but experts predict by 2050, they will rise by 0
00:44.66 centimeters annually.
00:45And that's without taking into account things like Greenland's ice sheet.
00:49It holds roughly 110 trillion tons of ice, and experts say that it will inevitably lose 3.3% of
00:55that due to man-made global warming.
00:57That amount of ice alone will raise sea levels by around a foot globally.
01:01Meaning 800 million people who live in coastal regions all over the world, including in cities like New York, are
01:06going to be in serious trouble.
01:08a bit of damage due to 10 emotions
01:08to T-referenland's ice, but even forests are still European farklı?
01:08I only wanted to try and encourage you to recall all these antic freaking things and everything is fair, but
01:08it belongs to normal.орм
01:14or gas uwagÄ™ to destroyers of scary only too, and many of them are just as crochets as far as
01:14possible. And
