What popular tourist destinations could look like in 2050 due to climate change - with much of London plunged underwater and roads melting in California (only 7.54 years left)
Daily Mail ^ | 7/16/23 | Jonathan Chadwick

From flooded cities to hellish wildfires and deadly droughts, gloomy climate reports constantly describe a world ruined by climate change.

But what would this actually look like?

Environmental specialist Marish Cuenca has partnered with DiscoverCars.com to create artistic depictions of tourist spots in just a quarter of a century from now.

London's Big Ben looks straight out of a disaster movie, straddled by a mass of murky floodwater, while the Pyramids of Giza are home to a toxic urban landscape.

Palm trees of Hawaii have been ravaged by fire, while California's Death Valley is so hot that the roads are melting.

Experts at DiscoverCars.com believe their images could become reality in 2050, unless we take serious climate action and curb our emissions.

'With global warming continuing to have an impact on the planet, we're already starting to see the effects of climate change,' it says in a blog post.

'From the melting of glaciers in the Arctic to warmer summers than ever before, it's safe to say that the environment is changing before our very eyes in real-time.

'With that being said, how might these renowned road trip routes look in the near future if climate change continues to progress at the current rate?'

LONDON

Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament is usually at the top of any holidaymaker's must-see list when they visit London.

But the artist's impression shows our majestic capital in a sorry state due to the Thames having burst its banks.

Westminster Bridge is barely above the waterline, while the roads in front of the legendary tourist attraction – officially called the Elizabeth Tower – are totally flooded.

Experts at DiscoverCars.com say: 'Due to rising sea levels, the majority of the London docks and any suburbs near the Thames are anticipated to be submerged...

I am sick and tired of these idiots.

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/on-this-date-51-years-ago-climate-scientists-predicted-a-new-ice-age-was-coming

“In 1971, global cooling was the climate threat du jour. Dr. Murray Mitchell of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration stated that the planet’s temperature had decreased by “one-half a degree Fahrenheit” since World War II in the 1971 article, titled “New Ice Age?” Claims of longer and harsher winters in Europe since 1940 were also cited. German meteorologist Dr. Martin Rodewald predicted that if this weather pattern continued, Europe “would be covered with the glaciers of a new ice age by the turn of the century.” In 1971, this was the science.

“American and Danish weather researchers in North Greenland, drilling down through 1400 meters of ice to read the weather record of 800 years, found that cold and warm cycles run for an average of 78 to 180 years,” the article stated. “On this basis, Dr. Rodewald does not foresee another warming trend before the year 2015.”

I remember this idiocy I was in grade school.

The folks in Iqaluit, Sach’s Harbor, Nuuk and Nome are looking forward to this development. In 2050, these towns will be popular beach resorts.

It’s a high price to pay, but necessary if the U.S. is to be spared the horrors of building a nuclear waste repository.

Wow—even the cherub/angel in the fountain suffers from shrinkage. Very imaginative.

These experts have claimed everything was already under-water and destroyed decades ago:

Now that all their predictions have proven wrong they have figured out the solution.

Double down!

If this is true, laws need to be passed immediately dealing with the sale of those properties impacted. At the very least buyers should be warned in writing what will happen.

(Note: I said what will happen-this is science) /s
