Gironde : L'indemnisation des propriétaires du Signal, menacé par l'érosion côtière, votée par le Sénat Publié le 20 juillet 2020. Il est le symbole depuis de nombreuses années de l’érosion côtière et du réchauffement climatique.
Après des années de lutte, les copropriétaires du Signal, cet immeuble de Soulac-sur-Mer, vont pouvoir être indemnisés. Le Sénat, à majorité de droite, a en effet voté dimanche un amendement, défendu par le gouvernement, qui « précise le cadre juridique permettant d’utiliser les crédits de 7 millions d’euros du programme prévention des risques, dédié à l’indemnisation de propriétaires de biens dans des immeubles rendus inhabitables par l’érosion côtière », a indiqué Agnès Pannier-Runacher, ministre déléguée auprès du ministre de l’Economie. Le texte prévoit ainsi une indemnisation des propriétaires des lots de l’immeuble à hauteur de 70 % de la valeur vénale estimée, sans que ne soit pris en compte le risque d’effondrement, a-t-elle précisé.

Pourquoi c’est important Les activités humaines qui émettent des gaz à effet de serre ont un impact sur le climat de la planète, avec des conséquences sur les vents et, dans les océans, sur les vagues.

Mark’s Basilica in Venice last week, submerging marble tombs, intricate mosaics, and centuries-old columns. A man was spotted swimming across St. Mark’s Square, normally bustling with tourists, as the highest tide in 50 years swept through. What happened when Venice, the ‘Floating City,’ sank. Flooding in Venice is not a new phenomenon, but the deluge that temporarily sank the “Floating City” this week was the worst Venetians have experienced in more than 50 years.
As high tide came in on Tuesday night, amidst heavy rain and strong winds, water levels reached 6 feet above sea level in parts of the city. Hundreds of ground-floors homes, shops, restaurants, and hotels throughout the city were inundated. Tables and chairs floated around public squares, and water taxis became stranded along the plazas.

Entrepreneur and presidential hopeful Andrew Yang caught flak at the second Democratic debate in July for saying that the time has come to move Americans living in the path of sea-level rise to higher ground.

Les couleurs sont éclatantes. Ice Apocalypse. In a remote region of Antarctica known as Pine Island Bay, 2,500 miles from the tip of South America, two glaciers hold human civilization hostage.
Stretching across a frozen plain more than 150 miles long, these glaciers, named Pine Island and Thwaites, have marched steadily for millennia toward the Amundsen Sea, part of the vast Southern Ocean. Further inland, the glaciers widen into a two-mile-thick reserve of ice covering an area the size of Texas. La Polynésie sauve son «Fonds vert»
One year after the Great Flood, Louisiana’s most vulnerable cope with the losses. The summertime rain that usually pounds Louisiana in fits and starts had been falling for a day and through the night when Shantel Smith’s phone rang. “My oldest sister called screaming, ‘I’m flooding out, I’m flooding out,’” she said. “Then the phone went dead.” Smith and her son, her sisters and their kids, and her mother and grandmother had moved to Baton Rouge from New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina flooding upended their lives. Family history was about to repeat. It’s been flooding a lot lately and new research might explain why. According to a new study from the nonprofit Environmental Integrity Project, the current presidential administration has collected fewer civil penalties and filed fewer environmental enforcement suits against polluting companies than the Obama, Clinton, and George W.
Bush administrations did at the same point in office. The analysis assesses agreements made in the Environmental Protection Agency’s civil enforcement cases. For abuses under laws like the Clean Air Act, the Trump administration has collected just $12 million in civil penalties, a drop of 60 percent from the average of the other administrations. Trump’s EPA has lodged 26 environmental lawsuits compared to 31, 34, and 45 by Bush, Obama, and Clinton, respectively. Comment l’élévation du niveau de la mer bouleverse la carte du monde. One of the largest icebergs ever recorded broke off Antarctica’s Larsen C ice shelf earlier this week, according to satellite pictures and scientists who monitor such things, permanently altering the coastline of our planet’s frozen continent.
Twice the size of Long Island and packing a trillion tons of ice — fully melted, that’s enough water to fill Lake Michigan — the newly birthed iceberg seems like a perfect symbol for our overheating world. But there’s a more complex story at play. The Sea Level Is Rising 50 Percent Faster These Days. Sea levels are rising – that much you probably already know. What may come as more of a shock to you is how much faster the sea level is rising compared to even 20 years ago. Scientists have measured a rapidly increasing pace, threatening to put islands and coastal areas underwater even sooner than anticipated. According to a new study published in the Nature Climate Change journal, the rate of sea level rise has gone up by about 50 percent over the past two decades.
Back in 1993, the sea level rose 2.2 millimeters that year. In 2014, however – which is the most recent year these measurements are available – the sea level ticked up 3.3 millimeters. Love This?

Enter Ritchie Torres, New York City’s youngest elected official, hell-bent on making the city more affordable for its most vulnerable inhabitants.
Torres, who is Afro-Latino and the first openly LGBT politician from the Bronx, cut his political teeth as a tenant organizer. He ran for city council in 2013 at the behest of a mentor who saw potential in the self-described introvert — and won. The young councilman’s driving issue is affordable housing, because, he says, “there can be no city without housing.” Reassessment of 20th century global mean sea level rise. Author Affiliations Edited by Anny Cazenave, Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales, Toulouse Cedex 9, France, and approved April 17, 2017 (received for review September 28, 2016) Significance Estimates of global mean sea level (GMSL) before the advent of satellite altimetry vary widely, mainly because of the uneven coverage and limited temporal sampling of tide gauge records, which track local sea level rather than the global mean.
Here we introduce an approach that combines recent advances in solid Earth and geoid corrections for individual tide gauges with improved knowledge about their geographical representation of ocean internal variability. As New Jersey’s flooding crisis intensifies, low-income people feel the worst impacts. Coastal communities are enduring growing flood risks from rising seas, with places like Atlantic City, sandwiched between a bay and the ocean, facing some of the greatest threats. Guided by new research by Climate Central’s Scott Kulp and Benjamin Strauss, reporter John Upton and photographer Ted Blanco chronicled the plight of this city’s residents as they struggle to deal with the impacts.
Upton spent months investigating how the city is adapting, revealing vast inequity between the rich and the poor.
