East Coast Island

East Coast Island is Sinking

 

  East Coast USA losing more Land than anywhere on Earth due to rising tides increasing.

Smith Island, in Chesapeake Bay Maryland, is sinking.

No flood insurance available due to increasing high tides. The crab fishing is dying out. Only 250 remain in population, as houses vanish into the ocean.

The harbors of New York, Boston, and other major cities are flooding much higher with tropical storms annually now. Sandy Hook devastation will be repeated. The seaboard of Atlantic City is in peril.

Why is this happening?

Climate changes the past two decades increased globally. More hurricanes in unexpected locations. More rain and snow surpassing all known records.

Many Climatologists point to the melting of glaciers and Artic ice, coupled with warming jet streams in world oceans. And carbon pollution.
