America Should Move New Orleans, Scientists Warn
Additional Video Information
New Orleans must begin an immediate relocation process to avoid future chaos. A stark new study published in the journal Nature Sustainability reveals that coastal Louisiana has officially crossed a "point of no return" and will likely be completely surrounded by the Gulf of Mexico before the end of this century. Discover the chilling data showing that the region faces 10 to 23 feet of sea-level rise, which could push the coastline up to 62 miles inland. Uncover the shocking truth about how rapid wetland erosion, a sinking coastline carved apart by the oil and gas industry, and stronger hurricanes are sealing the fate of this bowl-shaped basin. With 99 percent of its population already at major risk of severe flooding, experts warn that even if climate change stopped today, the city's days are numbered and no amount of money can keep it afloat. Click the video right now to explore the dramatic geographical transformations, the rapid land loss wiping out a football field-sized area every 100 minutes, and why researchers are urging a planned retreat from New Orleans before it is swallowed by the ocean. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Social Media: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This video is made for entertainment purposes.
