Cutting Short-lived Pollutants Can Slow Sea Level Rise | Climate [Hoax] Central

The study, published in the journal Nature Climate Change, found that reducing emissions of these short-lived climate pollutants, including soot and methane, by 30 to 60 percent by 2050 would slow the annual rate of sea level rise by about 18 percent by 2050. Combining reductions in short-lived pollutants with decreasing CO2 emissions could cut the rate of sea level rise in half by 2100, from 0.82 inches [Wait, so sea levels would be rising over 8 inches every decade?] to 0.43 inches per year, while reducing the total sea level rise by 31 percent during the same period.

Related research by Climate Central scientists shows that the emissions reductions would potentially benefit more than 2 million Americans by 2100, who might otherwise be living below sea level at that point.
