We all know it, we all feel it. We are destroying our planet. Slowly but surely, the average global temperature is rising and melting all the ice on our planet, resulting in the water level rising. Soon, the water level will be so high it will cover cities and people’s homes.
That’s what the researchers at Climate Central wanted to show with their project. They took famous places we all know and love and showed how they may look in 2050 if the climate continues to worsen as it has been doing. By 2050, the global temperature will be 3°C higher and many cities near the coasts will be lost underwater. If we don’t do anything, in just 30 years we will have devastating results.
