My top 3 impressions up-front: The sea level projections for the year 2100 have been adjusted upwards again. The IPCC gives more consideration to the large long-term sea-level rise beyond the year 2100. And here is the key sea-level graphic from the Summary for Policy Makers: Source: IPCC AR6, Figure SPM.8.

Everyone will suffer greatly from sea-level rise and climate change if policymakers cede decision-making to corporate interests. PJM directs the revenues and operation of the largest fossil fuel power plant fleet (124 gigawatts), making it the largest utility in the US.

King served under the Tony Blair and Gordon Brown New Labour Government from October 2000 to December 2007. He set out to outline the global acceleration of extreme weather events driven by continued fossil fuel production. When it has all melted the global sea levels would have risen by 7.5

In other words, the claim shows a lack of knowledge and is a well-known old argument that I commented on Realclimate.org in 2007. While temperatures provide a measure of the Earth’s climate, it is even better to use the global sea level , which provides a far more reliable measure. See for instance Benestad (2016).

Now the same district court has gone further, again in favor of environmental groups but now against Royal Dutch Shell (“Shell”) , the world’s largest non-state-owned fossil fuel company. Environmental Protection Agency (2007) forced the EPA to regulate greenhouse gas emissions. These lawsuits face three key barriers.

It is worth noting that if all ice melt in Antarctica, sea level would rise by 60 meters (around 200 feet). Systemic solution such as ending fossil fuels subsidies , taxing carbon and investing massively in sustainable infrastructures is required. Is Mankind ready to change this drastically and do it fast ?

Even before adoption of the 1992 Framework Convention, the Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS) had proposed an “International Insurance Pool” to pay vulnerable countries based on observed sea level rise. The first explicit use of the term L&D was in the 2007 Bali Action Plan , in a section on enhanced action for adaptation.
