Summary:
- A study by Nanyang Technological University in Singapore found that global sea levels may rise by up to 1.9 meters by 2100, exceeding previous projections.
- The study used a new model that incorporates the latest data on ice sheet melt and ocean warming, which suggests a more rapid rise in sea levels than previously estimated.
- The researchers warn that this could have devastating consequences for coastal communities and infrastructure, and emphasize the urgent need for climate action to mitigate the impacts of rising sea levels.
