Oh, this again? Come on. That’s not what scientists say. It’s a map of the Mediterranean Sea superimposed on the US. It’s a joke. Florida is going to be submerged way before the Rocky Mountains.

Do you have a source for this? I’m going to need to do some of my own research before I start believing that.
Scientific and irrefutable :)
Except:
-Get Out of Denver - Bob Seger
-Because I Got High - Afroman
-Running Up That Hill - Kate Bush
Your only saying that cuz you have hope for the future
I don’t know. Here I am occupying my day explaining to strangers that a map posted to something literally called “Lemmy Shitpost” is not scientifically accurate. I think I’m probably not clever enough to operate in the future. I hate the future. It sucks. Where’s my flying car?
Oh oh I know this one!!! It’s at the bottom of the swamp they said they’d drain!!!
As a citizen scientist, I have to agree with the map’s conclusion. If anything, it’s optimistic. I’d say the timeline is probably closer to 12 years before that map is our new reality.
I think this is rather a representation of how the common USA citizen see the world lmao
I’ve got ocean front property in Arrriiiizzooonnaaa
A legitimate Gulf of America
Looks like my house is still there so fuck it.
how is new orelans still there if its built under sea level?
Great, just what I needed. MORE humidity
How dare you give Missouri such good food
Keep going. We haven’t sunk Florida yet.
Lol, the mountains in the East underwater.
That is this, some sort of shit post.
I don’t think it can be reversed. They’re just saying that so we don’t freak out super saiyan level.
Reverse effect of sea level rise. Can’t wait for Florida to sink and all the Rich people that own all the coastal properties to have permanent jet skies
I’m from WV, many of us (including myself) care deeply about the environment. That being said, water front property in the state I love would be AMAZING wv with beaches sounds like a dream. Can imagine the valleys and hills would make a bunch of cool islands. Kind of like the Les cheneaux islands up noth. Would be sick as shit for sailing.
Alas I know this is a pipe dream and any environmental effects that drove the water that high would basically turn the rest of the planet into a desert hellscape.
lake Superior lookin pretty lush
