  8. Sea level rise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_level_rise

    If there are very deep cuts in emissions, sea level rise would slow between 2050 and 2100. It could then reach by 2100 between 30 cm (1 ft) and 1.0 m (3 + 1 ⁄ 3 ft) from now and approximately 60 cm (2 ft) to 130 cm (4 + 1 ⁄ 2 ft) from the 19th century. With high emissions it would instead accelerate further, and could rise by 50cm (1.6 ft ...
