Los Angeles Must Pay Billions to Adapt—or Slip Into the Sea

Ok, so LA is slipping into the sea, that's like a reverse hurricane.

Trump could always consider building a second wall, this one being for sea defences though :hmmm:

^ "NO MOLECULE GETS THROUGH, AND I WILL MAKE POSEIDON PAY FOR IT !"


Sorry, what was the OP? "Reverse hurricane" lol :)

Well the problem is pretty obvious. Look at a map. California is slanted to the left. There's your trouble. Time to level off a bit. :O:

geez, do I gotta think of everything?

You move to higher ground or build a boat.

Are you kidding? Well over half of the democratic voters would go into the sea! :haha::o Trump will not build a wall!!

Beach replenishment is conducted here on the east coast. Large ships offshore pump sand in large pipes to the beaches. The process works well but is very expensive.

Man has a penchant building near the oceans. With sea levels having been 300 feet lower than they are now. There must be hundreds of ancient cities underwater far off shore.

The geological viewpoint:
Does the sea level rise, or does the continent drop?
Or both?
Or does the sea rise faster, than the continent?
Or do both drop, but the continent is faster?

If we say the sea level rises, there must be a cause :hmmm:

Overabundance of toilet flushing.

Causes? :hmmm:, in addition to the overabundance of toilet flushing there's gravity, melankovitch climate cycles, solar radiation, current disarray of earths magnetic field, Atlantic and Pacific decadel oscillations . Lots of reasons why and we find out more everyday, and as much as some would like to think otherwise there isn't one damn thing you can do to change any of it. Like a big truck, going down a big hill, with no brakes, sea levels are gonna rise. So go out buy some mountain property inland while it's still cheap your great, great great grand children will think well of you. Because it will become very costly ocean front property in the near future.


bwuhuhuhaha
:lost: :D

Would the rest of America miss LA if it slipped into the ocean. :hmmm:

The new fear is that an earthquake in LA basin would cause a tidal wave that would hit the Island of Catalina and then bounce back causing untold damage on Long Beach :o
