they also failed to mention is that there isn't enough ice to melt to cause anywhere near this amount of flood. the absolute highest sea levels have only reached 20 ft higher than now.

They told us that by the year 2000 sea levels would rise at least three meters. My boat dock at the Jersey shore is still at the exact same level as it was in 1970.

Another intresting thing is the water appearing to cover inland baisons with no conection to the sea
. At 1300 meters the great salt desert starts to flood yet the rim of the baison at red Rock pass is at least 700 feet higher
This would also help the southern portion of the Colorado River.
Similarly, the map showed changes in the great lakes well before Niagara falls were over topped. So there must be some errors in this simulation.
I don't think they actually accounted for real topographical realities. Just added sea level on an empty globe and it filled in the cracks automatically without regard to how the water would get there. 70m is the max possible sea level rise. A hundred meters if we're being excessively generous and accounting for things like increased rainfall. So, most people on earth if they can move as people do, are fine.
This isn't a flood map. It is a very colorful elevation map. That's why.

Not only would it be scary to see the sea levels rising like this at such an absurd rate.. I can imagine the polar shifts in weather when the ocean takes of mostly all of the east.. remember the west and east are divided by there differences in cultivation/ rain fall and many other factors.. since the east gets more precipitation it's more lush with green.. now with this 180 degree shift I wonder how places like Texas or new Mexico looked like halfway thru it's flooding..
I have had 30 years of pole shift dreams,lived in Austin, Texas when they started,was given the number of feet the water would rise there to 661' above sea level.I now reside in San Angelo,Texas at about 1900',at the western edge of the Texas Hill Country and the Edwards Plateau

I've had some intense dreams about poleshift/earthchanges as well over the years. I have seen maps of where things were at before I ever looked at maps of such things and elevation levels and they were shockingly in alignment. Mine appeared to show water getting all the way up to Oklahoma City before receding. There are high winds and lots of buildings on fire, cars overturned flooding etc. I don't know what details you might have to offer but I would be interested if it coincides much.

I live on Crowleys Ridge, and I've had a few dreams of the ocean surrounding the ridge. At a certain point, that map shows the same.
Nobody ever takes into account the weight of the water and the new pressure on the Teutonic plates which would now cause movement and volcanic activity. So in short the world map would no longer look like that so predictions of sea level rise based on no movement are just scare tactics. The results would be unpredictable.
*Tectonic plates. Teutonic is a Germanic cultural & linguistic group in Europe.

Would be interesting to see the Sierra Nevada mountains trees become coastal.
It's weird that, while the west coast remains somewhat intact between 75-200m (except for the flooding of the Central Valley of CA and flooding in Cascadia), the entirety of the gulf southeast is underwater...
Just goes to show they can't even be honest with their map. 4000 meters is 12,000 feet, nothing except the highest mountains would be above water. Unless I've been incorrect my entire life and the west coast actual is miles above sea level (1 mile = 5,280 feet).
I think a lot of that is because, other than a few small beaches, the majority fo the west coastline is lined with mountains. There are tons of steep cliff looking shorelines when you look at photos of the west coast. To get to any coast if you are in Washington, Oregon, or California, you almost always have to cross some range of smaller mountains. The water will for sure come in through the river inlets and flood the interior through those openings. But beyond that, the majority of the coast will be less affected. Of course, since almost all major cities in the world are super close to the coast, those cities will still be wiped out. :p
@@drawingdead9025 ... but this person's comment was about the 75 to 200m range..? You are correct for sure that nothing but the highest mountains would be above water by 4k meters lol. I don't even think there's enough liquid in the world to even do that though. :p

“THAT’S WHEN EVERYONE MOVED…TO NEW MEXICO!!!” -Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains
What people are failing to realize is that the earth has been going through changes throughout history. At one time ALL of the land masses were connected together, then over time land masses started separating. The way that the land masses looks today is nothing like it looked in the 1800s or further back into the 1500s. Scientists have been saying that the earth has shifted on its axis to where the land that has been in the coldest climates is now in somewhat warmer climates. The land that has been in the warmer climates are now in somewhat colder climates. The reason that people have never known or heard about it, is because technology hasn't always been around to be able to allow everyday people to know anything about the changes that our earth has been going through throughout history. There is a video on CZcams of a man who went to the artic and flew over the entire area. His findings were that yes the artic is melting on one side. However the other side that wasn't intensely frozen, and was somewhat warmer. It now is getting extremely colder and freezing everything forming icebergs. All of his information only proves that what the Scientists have been saying about earth changing its axis is exactly what is happening.
Hmmm Icebergs arise from MELTING Ice... not freezing Ice. The more this planet heats up the MORE icebergs we will see. The speed at which glaciers are calving into the ocean continues to increase. They are amazing to watch... unfortunately we are witnessing our own demise. 😢☹
Land masses didn't separate, water covers mountains and land. It's still a solid mass of land.
Actually prove it though. No body really knows what history is we can only guess. To act as if we witnessed things we didn’t is foolish. The tectonic plates don’t stop at the waters edge. It looks as if the continents somehow joined together but raise or lower the water level slightly and they don’t fit even close. Not to mention they are not separate parts but all the same dirt that goes under the water In the ocean. We have no idea what the earth used to look like if you can prove me wrong indefinitely I would love to see it.
The earth looked exactly the same from now to the 1800’s 💀

No? Its at 136.5 meters.
@@ii_tfnwrmarmy7564 according to this map, it's at 25 m. Delaware's average height above normal sea level is 18m
1:34 This is as high as it can get. If all the Ice on the entire Earth melted, this is as high as it would get, 60 meters, give or take a meter.
If all the surface ice on Earth were to melt, it is estimated that the sea levels could rise by approximately 70 to 75 meters (230 to 246 feet). This includes the melting of the Greenland ice sheet, the Antarctic ice sheet, and all other glaciers and ice caps worldwide.
Interesting. The thing is as water advances in this manner the coverage changes due to the amount of land it covers. Water can only spread so far throughout the world, an as another person has written all ice melting will rise sea levels around 230ft.
You have to take into account heat added to the water too

Not worried, I got a big boat. Noah gave me some pointers on the jib & gunnels.
On the count of 3, everyone move to Colorado and pray that the sea level doesn't go over 2,400m. lol
Science: Sea levels increase 0.1 inch a year. In 100years sea level will be 3ft higher than today.
Me: If the rate is linear, wouldn't it be only 10 inches higher, not 3ft? Or are you assuming an increasing rate of sea level change?
Not 1 inch a year. 1 inch a year now, but if CO2 concentration keeps rising closer to exponentially instead of the flat rate increase you're talking, then air and sea temperatures and therefore sea level probably won't rise at a flat rate. Thats early highschool lernin right there. Probably 8th grade science by now.
@@AmeriMutt76 one thing is that for every foot of rise it takes more water to make the next foot. The great salt lake did reach 4212 above sea-level but the surface area would almost double to get to 4218
@Sheila Rider cus its moving slowly
@@AmeriMutt76 It's not 1 inch/year, it's 0.12 inch/year, and for the past century the rate of rise has been consistent. This presentation doesn't take into account the effect of more surface area of water, leading to more evaporation and more clouds; nor does it account for continental drift or the sinking and rising of tectonic plates.
That is not fact, not science, you are buying into global warmism. I learned that long ago. the warmists predicted 30 years ago that the ice caps would be gone by now. hahaha Liars!
Geez, imagine the separatism and the overseas territories in the whole US through the years it goes underwater.
If all the ice on Earth melts, we've got bigger problems than flooding.
Not really.
Here's an experiment you can do at home. Fill a glass with ice to the tippy top. Then fill the glass with water to the tippy top. Tell us all if the glass overflows when the ice melts.
Of course there isn't 4000 meters of sea level stuck in all the ice in the world but this is mearly a fun what-if scenario!

@@markbrowning4334 exactly.

i'm dutch and i can relate to this
W VID
magari ❤❤❤
There's probably 20-30 peaks over 1600m, & a handful over 2000m in Tennessee & North Carolina. So this animation is skewed somewhat (by the time it reaches Appalachia in any case), about 600m
I find this somewhat dubious.
Firstly, even if all the ice on the planet melted, we're talking something more like a 70m (200 ft) rise, not a 4,000m rise in sea levels. In other words, about 1:44. This does affect some major cities, like NYC and Houston, but other than Florida and Delaware (and maybe Rhode Island?), doesn't affect a lot of US states in the sense of completely eating them. Louisiana comes close, though. Would eat up a lot of major cities and force people inland, though. The 4,000m number here seems to be chosen in a sort of "How can we make it look like the entire world/nation will be underwater?" than anything from reality - as a 4,000m rise would overtake all but the tallest mountain ranges on the planet.
Secondly, the pattern here is a bit odd. The west coast itself would remain somewhat above water, but all the major cities would not, and Gulf of Baha would spill over into the flats of Arizona and flood inland.
Thirdly, another interesting thing to note is that the Atlantic and Pacific coasts are actually NOT at the same height. I don't remember the reasoning for this (I think it has to do with the Earth's rotation, possibly something akin to the Coriolis effect in that the oceans will wash higher on the coasts along the "leading edge" of the Earth's rotation), but regardless of the reason, there is a height difference that can be witnessed when crossing the Panama Canal. And no, I don't mean the individual locks, I mean the sea/ocean level on either side is different, though I don't recall by how much. Though this is more an "interesting thing to note" than anything.
Fourthly, it's also interesting to note that most of the major cities are under water or coastal by 200m or so. Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio basically become coastal cities at that point...though this is SOMETHING of a lie as far as shipping goes. A city at 200m above sea level (today) would technically be coastal with a 200m rise...but that means the land just on the ocean side would be 1-10m deep, not deep enough for major ships. So they aren't EXACTLY coastal in that sense unless they have a river today or a channel drudged out for ships or employ flat-bottomed transport ships. But, again, estimates are for 70m rise, and that's if ALL the ice ON THE PLANET melted and fell into the oceans. Which isn't really a realistic scenario even now.

I like how Arkansas/the Ozarks hold on as a little island state until 660m.
Exactly what I was thinking, is this after a giant ice ball hits the planet or something, where is all this water supposedly coming from?
Of course, but it's a simulation. Sure, You can stop at 70m or run farther.
I see that as usual US citizens seem to have no grasp of the fact that the impact on the whole world of even a few meters of sea-level rise will be catastrophic. A peek above the US’ parochial horizons will reveal an existential threat is looming for us all. Comfort yourself in your profligate climate-change forcing bubble until the merde really hits the fan. W.hen the climate tips over we will all be a downward spiral to the new Middle Ages.
@@johnashton4086 I'm literally calling out bad science. If knowing the actual science, understanding science, and seeing this minsinformation for the misinformation it is is "usual US citizens", then that's a complement.
Yes, I know that a 10-20 meter rise would doom a lot of low lying island nations. I'd love to see a simulation of a 0-70m rise of the whole planet like this (this doesn't even show all of the US since Alaska and Hawaii aren't in it) and discuss the whole thing.
But I'm opposed to using scare tactics to drive people to take actions.
That's not science, that's lying to children about the bad monster that will eat them if they don't do their chores.
So let's stick with the science, shall we?
Climate change would suck. There are lots of reasons to oppose it without lying.
So don't lie.
The entire US wouldn't flood - again, 70m would be about the rise, not 4,000m.
And let's be real, Humans are an insanely adaptable species. We, collectively as a species, would survive this. There would still be a lot of arable land, crops to grow, trees to produce oxygen and base energy for the food chain and ecosystem. Even non-Human life tends to be surprisingly more adaptable than we give it credit, and most life on the planet would also adapt. And the change is gradual - the IPCC itself estimates around 1m rise by 2100. A 70m rise would likely take hundreds or even THOUSANDS of years, which is a lot of time for technology and evolution to adapt.
Don't tell lies about scary monsters that don't exist - the planet isn't doomed or post some mythical "point of no return" in a decade, nor are we all going to die within a currently alive Human's lifetime - tell the truth.
It's not as scary or "sexy", but it's what should be more than enough to convince people of the need.
And if it's not...your lies aren't going to work any better anyway. Especially not when people realize you've lied to them and galvanize against you.
@@holdenrobbins852 From EARTH within.
When I forget about my cup of lemonade and ice and hours later the ice has melted in the cup, the level of the liquid never overflows the top of the cup. But yes, this is quite a simulation.
200 Meters sea rise: metro Atlanta has beach front property. Both California and Oregon have large inland lakes. And the Mississippi River becomes the Mississippi Bay.
Imagine Salt Lake City finally having a massive salt lake next to them for once
Ahh what a nice Salt Lake we have here in Salt Lake City.
Wakes up in the morning during this video: WHOA how did it get so big? It’s getting BIGGER I’m gonna have to move NOW!
What?
There's not enough water on earth to make the sea level to rise 4000m. Not even close, only ~70m if all ice melts. Which also shows how extremely wrong some movies are such as 2012 when water went over Mt Everest (almost 9000m). And more water is needed to raise each additional meter, since there would be more surface area to cover for the next meter up. Since the average ocean deepth is less than 4000m, which means you would need more than twice the amount of water the earth currently has just to reach similar heights.
Right
earth has an ocean 8x the size of the surface ocean trapped underground in a mineral called ringwoodite.
The water underground is what causes massive floods like in the Bible. How? When the magnetic field weakens enough, the sun's energy causes massive storms with massive lighting storms that brings the ground water up. The scary thing is that this happens in cycles and many many people in the know say we're experiencing a pole shift now.
I thought that the sea level rose in 2012 because of a massive tsunami caused by all the tectonic plates just moving about though
@@TheArc37 You nailed er buddy! We are presently on that path and the light at the end is pretty bright
It'd be neat to live through an event like this.
If the sea rise could just stop at 260m that would be great. Yeah. I will still need those TPS reports.
United States of Sea
Call me dumb or whatever but can a huge man made river in between the US and the sahara desert decrease world sea level significantly?
@@xhafts that’s not gonna happened it’s just a a video
Faz do Brasil 👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷
🤞❤️
Surprised to see West Mobile County on the Gulf Coast has enough elevation to make it to 65m of water...New Orleans, Biloxi and Houston and all of the Florida Panhandle are toast!
They could've just left New Orleans out the video. Not even a minute in and it just goes.
Thank god sea levels are not rising any appreciable amounts.
They are tho
@@ironmickXD Nope. Follow the money. Elites who care nothing about anything but their property are still building billion dollar high rise properties only a few feet above sea level. If the rate of sea level rise were going to increase, they would build far above sea level. They are not stupid and they have all the resources and the inclination to know what's incredibly unlikely to happen. Incidentally, many of these elites say they believe that sea level rise will increase exponentially. Yeah, their own money is telling on them.
@@rollupyoursleeves8773 Ever heard of insurance?
@@ironmickXD No they aren’t.
