NASA says that satellite imaging has already shown a dramatic rise in sea levels due to climate change and that more dramatic rises are in store. The panel announced that the worldwide sea level has risen an average of nearly three inches since 1992. Scientist Josh Willis explained that some predictions say sea level could rise as high as six feet by 2100.

Josh Willis: “Most scientists believe that about three feet by 2100 is probably the most likely amount of sea level rise we’ll have. But there are estimates as low as one foot and as high as six feet by 2100, which would be really devastating.”
