1. Sea level rise is accelerating and happening faster than expected.

James Hansen says we could hit 5m within decades.

Nobody knows for sure how quickly it will progress, but it will hit hard sooner rather than later.

The massive storm surges of such violent hurricanes are linked to sea level rise.

6. Given the uncertainties and the fact that everything about climate is happening faster than expected, I don& #39;t feel one can claim there& #39;s no way this is possible. Even cautious mainstream corporate media are talking about cities being wiped out by 2050. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/10/29/climate/coastal-cities-underwater.html">https://www.nytimes.com/interacti...

8. Right now in 2019, sea level rise is

1. destroying ecosystems
2. creating deadly storm surges
3. wrecking habitats
4. increasing extinction risks
5. eroding coastlines
6. swallowing islands
7. threatening communities
8. destroying crops

12b. What can we do?!

Climate justice activists are taking action for climate justice. That& #39;s probably the best idea. We must accept that this predicament is all about a destructive political economy, then, organise transformation.
