This is the scariest graph I've ever seen

The video discusses the melting of ice cubes and introduces the concept of sea level rise, highlighting the difference between global mean sea level (GMSL) and sea level rise commitment (SLRC). It explains various climate scenarios, including RCP 2.6 and RCP 8.5, and their implications for future sea levels. The video emphasizes the long-term effects of current temperature increases and the importance of addressing climate change proactively to mitigate severe impacts by 2100.

What happens to an ice cube when the temperature exceeds 32 degrees Fahrenheit?

• It changes color.

• It remains solid.

• It becomes liquid water.

• It turns into steam.

What does the blue line in the sea level rise graph represent?

• The average sea level in 1900.

• The current sea level.

• The best-case scenario for sea level rise.

• The worst-case scenario for sea level rise.

What is the economic impact of a full meter of sea level rise by 2100?

• $100 billion

• $14 trillion

• $50 trillion

• $1.5 trillion

What does SLRC stand for in the context of sea level rise?

• Sea Level Rise Calculation

• Sea Level Rise Commitment

• Sea Level Rise Correction

• Sea Level Rise Control

What is the long-term impact of current CO2 levels on sea level rise?

• No impact at all.

• A decrease in sea level.

• More than a meter of sea level rise.

• Immediate sea level rise.
