Quote :
Ocean levels around the world have risen about three inches since 1992 thanks to warming temperatures owing to the burning of fossil fuels. Now, new NASA research shows sea levels will likely rise three feet in the coming decade, and it’s too late to do anything about it.

The findings are based on satellite data that looked at sea levels, the amount of heat that’s already stored in the oceans, and how much water is being added by melting ice sheets in the Arctic and Antarctica.


That scared the shit outta me.  I plan on retiring to my home in Southwestern Escambia County, and some of the bridges accessing that area will be under water with a 3-foot sea level change.  

But the next paragraph in the article says this in contradiction... at least for the time frame.                        

Quote :
“It’s pretty certain we are locked into at least three feet of sea-level rise, and probably more,” Steve Nerem, lead researcher on NASA’s Sea Level Change Team, said on a conference call Wednesday. “But we don’t know whether it will happen within a century or somewhat longer.”

Well, that's as clear as mud. A certain decade or an uncertain up to 100+ years.
