Picture This: U.S. Cities Under 12 feet of Sea Level Rise

Photos show it another way. In 2013, Climate Central shared some of its sea level rise mapping data with artist Nickolay Lamm so that he could develop photorealistic images of U.S. city scenes under different future scenarios. One scenario was 12 feet of sea level rise — right in the middle of the range now predicted due to the collapse of key Antarctic glaciers under way. Here is what some classic American city scenes would look like today with that much extra ocean. Credit: Nickolay Lamm.

You Can Have Your Fish and Eat Them Too. Ninety percent of the large predators in the ocean are gone and their populations have collapsed, and some scientific studies suggest that most fisheries worldwide will collapse before 2050.

You Can Have Your Fish and Eat Them Too

The reason for this is that we have taken too many fish out of the sea, and we keep taking more before the remaining populations are able to reproduce. It’s like constantly withdrawing from a checking account without ever putting any money in. Guess what will happen to our fish – or our finances. Pretty soon, they’ll simply run out.

How to Fix It But there are alternatives that have proven successful. Mel and his friends discover the myriad benefits of marine reserves. Marine reserves are like savings accounts, with a principal we don’t touch, but which produce compound interest we can enjoy. In addition, because there are so many fish inside these reserves, some of them spread beyond the boundaries of the reserves, into areas where they can be caught by the local fishers.

Four years after devastating BP oil spill, scientists search for life in the Gulf

A well drilled by the BP oil company blew out, killing 11 workers on the Deepwater Horizon rig and unleashing a gusher into the Gulf of Mexico for 87 days. Now for the first time since 2010, scientists got a close look at the seabed not far from the capped well. Fifty miles off the coast of Louisiana we climbed aboard the research vessel Atlantis. This is where we found Mandy Joye, a University of Georgia oceanographer and the leader of this expedition.

She's been studying the Gulf of Mexico for 20 years. "People who have never seen the bottom of the ocean can't appreciate how just phenomenal it is," Joye said. Joye and her team of 22 scientists are spending this month diving to the Gulf floor in a Navy research submarine named Alvin. The answer is a mile down, a two-hour descent into darkness. "We are on the bottom at 1,607 meters," Joye can be heard saying. Alvin landed just two miles from the well that spewed 210 million gallons of oil into the Gulf.
