One covered in water and oxygen? Even if that worked, the sun would then shrink again and become a dwarf, and our new outer planet would freeze.

Indeed, we should have started 50 years ago, then we'd have been alright.

I’m not sure if the details, prof Brian Cox was discussing it, in theory, on his new Planets prog. Which is brilliant by the way.

Erm, what level do they think the sea will rise by and does anyone know the height above sea level of the Royal Pavilion area of Brighton? Just asking for a friend who lives around that way, Thanks.

62’ apparently.

How much does the sea level have to rise before it's gone?
How much is the sea level being predicted to rise?

I genuinely don't know the answer to either, it may be 100% safe, but that's what I'd be checking.

I read that if the Greenland ice cap melted entirely the global sea level will rise by 6 metres.

Goodbye Holland and East Anglia.

Not so terrible then.

Don't worry, AI will exterminate humanity to protect the planet before global warming gets a chance.

But the good news is the expanding sun may make other planets inhabitable as they warm up. We have about 5 billion years to sort something out. We probably still won’t be ready!

That's really cool, very interesting, I could play with it for ages.

Just not exactly sure of it's accuracy, when places like Amsterdam seem to be wiped out at a 0m rise.

Probably it’s because parts of Amsterdam are well below sea level.

Odds of Asteriod FT3 colliding with Earth in the next 3 months are 11 million to 1 or, put another way, similar to the odds of us winning the Premier League next season, so we should be OK.
