Lamm, from the self-storage search engine , crafted chilling illustrations that depict how could have Venice, San Diego and many other metropolitan cities gasping for air.
With the help ofsea level rise maps and flood formulas, Lamm used data to create realistic images of American towns completely submerged in seawater. He started with stock photos of a city and cross-referenced their location to topography maps. Lamm then implemented a formula that determined what that city would look like using elevation, tide and sea level forecasts.
By illustrating what sea level rise will look like in real life, Lamm tells , I'm hoping to make our rising oceans a bigger issue on peoples' minds.
forecasts that the Earths temperature will rise by between three and seven more degrees Fahrenheit by 2100. Since climbing temperatures mean melting polar ice caps and rising seas, thepredicts that the sea level is expected to rise between two and seven feet by the centurys end.
So what are we waiting for? If we go with the flow and let climate change swell, our greatest cities could be in deep water.
