Imagine if you could walk from the Quad to The French Quarter, drunk, in less than 20 minutes.
Soon, you'll be able to sail there.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has projected sea levels to rise 1.4 to 2.8 feet by the end of this century, with even a jump of nearly seven feet possible in a worst-case scenario. This would dramatically alter coastal states, with large portions of Louisiana being inundated by rising seas.
I guess that centrifugal force doesn’t exist in the future.
These prognostications have been comically off forever.

Oh, geez. A second exodus of this crap.

New Orleans politics has a much better chance of sinking the city than climate change.

According to a report from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, "The landscape of Southeast Louisiana was built upon a coastal delta created by the Mississippi River during the past 8,000 years as sea level rise due to glacial melting in the last ice age slowed.
Joke’s on those eggheads!
The earth is barely 6,000 years old to begin with.

Guess they should let the Mississippi meander down the Atchafalaya.
It’s over. They’re cooked.

New Orleans is underlain by soft marine clays which were overlain by sediments. The clay layers settle slowly over a long period of time through consolidation. Settlement would still occur if sea level was five feet lower. Buildings exert forces deep in a Bousinesque approximation.
Foundations of larger structures are friction piles driven to refusal. There are geotechnical remedial measures for the buildings and deep soil improvements for the levees. Levees can be raised. Pumps can help control the water much as the Dutch have for centuries.
Money will be the issue, not global warming.

I was being sarcastic. I know renewables aren’t going anywhere without heavy government subsidies. Renewables are BS.

Anyone attributing a possible 7ft sea level rise over the next 75yrs to anthropogenic cause should be banned from future scientific discussions, and relegated to fiction writing.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has projected sea levels to rise ... with even a jump of nearly seven feet possible in a worst-case scenario.

Seas aren’t rising.

NASA and researchers at Tulane University say the Crescent City is sinking at the rate of one to two inches per year, per Big Easy Magazine.
That’s a crazy fast rate of sinking!! Show me the chart of the sinking. Did New Orleans sink by 12 - 24 inches since Katrina? 2 feet? No fricking way.
Reality: a rate one-tenth that would show monumental structural changes, easily noticeable, in every structure from high rise to doghouses.
Since we aren’t seeing buildings condemned and drywall replaced every few months, it’s just another damned lie

Additional research will help bring focus to the complicated problems cities like New Orleans face. Tulane University received a $3.2 million grant to study how sea-level rise will impact more than 1800 military installations worldwide.
There you go. All about the dollars. No problems, no monies...

These figs have been pedaling this shite since the 80's. It's all a bunch of liberal pussies trying to earn their climate change badge.
Look at a current, accurate map of coastal Louisiana compared to 50 years ago and then try to argue it’s made up.
