Burn more coal, I still see part of Texas left.
From my Oklahoma friend: “Give Texas back to Mexico!”
I can’t remember where I saw this (probably a webcomic) where they asked who won the Mexican American war, and the punchline was “well who ended up with Texas”
I don’t know, they took some of the most conservative parts of the state to the north and northeast, plus the panhandle. Maybe we’ve got a chance now.
I’m just glad they took Oklahoma
Another Italy?
In this economy??
This is getting out of hand! Now there are two of them.
I’ll pay taxes necessary for another Italy if we get another Greece. Fuck now I’m hungry
Florida being basically the same… even the ocean didn’t want that fuckin place.
Man I was hoping this was real thanks :(
The sea there hit most of the mountain ranges. If Kentucky is underwater and ohio isn’t a lot more than just climate change happened
Oh, this again? Come on. That’s not what scientists say. It’s a map of the Mediterranean Sea superimposed on the US. It’s a joke. Florida is going to be submerged way before the Rocky Mountains.
Your only saying that cuz you have hope for the future
I don’t know. Here I am occupying my day explaining to strangers that a map posted to something literally called “Lemmy Shitpost” is not scientifically accurate. I think I’m probably not clever enough to operate in the future. I hate the future. It sucks. Where’s my flying car?
Oh oh I know this one!!! It’s at the bottom of the swamp they said they’d drain!!!
Florida is going to be submerged way before the Rocky Mountains.
Do you have a source for this? I’m going to need to do some of my own research before I start believing that.
Scientific and irrefutable :)
Except:
-Get Out of Denver - Bob Seger
-Because I Got High - Afroman
-Running Up That Hill - Kate Bush
As a citizen scientist, I have to agree with the map’s conclusion. If anything, it’s optimistic. I’d say the timeline is probably closer to 12 years before that map is our new reality.
A legitimate Gulf of America
Amerope isn’t real, it cannot hurt us
Florida is still there so not real
Yeah no way FL and LA are above sea level.
Flattest state in the Union. My town is a whopping 33’ above sea level.
Since a 2°C increase in temp means a ~2m increase in sea level, there’s plenty of room left over from your 33’.
The world does not need another Balkan peninsula, trust me. And especially not in a place where guns are legal.
how is new orelans still there if its built under sea level?
The nice thing about climate change is I can retire in a seaside town without ever having to move house.
How dare you give Missouri such good food
I was thinking this looks a lot like the Mediterranean sea. It took me about 1 min to see Italy 🥲
Y’all thought Ohio was gonna invade everyone but it’s everyone invading Ohio
Missouri. They get the best food in climatechangerica
As long as I can still see some titties on the Huzzah I am okay with whatever
