Report: Sea Levels To Claim Maryland Coastline Much Faster

A report from the governor's scientific commission due out later today is much more ominous than an earlier study with similar conclusions.

Just five years ago the prediction was that the state's low lying waterfront areas could disappear by a bit less than 3 feet by the end of this century.

But the latest caculations put the loss at possibly closer to 6 feet, with a likely loss rate in the 2-foot range by 2050.

That loss of coastline is believed to be the direct result of global warming and the melting of the polar ice caps.

"From the governors scientific commission" tells me all I need to know. More commie propaganda to provide cover for the dictator.

Just because you name something global warming then realize it isn't doesn't mean you can change the name to climate change and be credible.
The climate ALWAYS has changed and ALWAYS will continue to change regardless of anything man does.
Fossil fuels are here, always have been and always have been ignited with gases released into the atmosphere.

12:08 go away. if anyone is a flat earther it's people like you who fall for anything.
climate is cyclical and has been since the beginning of time. you drank the kool aid and joined the church of what's happening now. this is your religion and most of us aren't interested in the lies that are constantly being promoted. you live on emotion and you believe what you're spoon fed.
do your own research and be your own person. don't believe everything your told.

I believe things will improve for the rest of the shore if it does. Let them find another place to destroy! I avoid the beach right now because of them!
