World's Oceans Are in Catastrophic Danger, UN Climate Study Finds The landmark study found that <br />without drastically lowering emissions, <br />rising ocean levels will wreak havoc <br />to all human life on earth. Michael Meredith, Study Author, via Reuters The UN backed study of more <br />than 100 authors correlated data <br />from 7,000 academic papers. If emissions continue to rise, <br />the report predicts that sea levels <br />could rise by an entire meter by 2100. By 2300, sea levels could <br />rise as much as five meters. Nerilie Abram, Study Author, via Reuters Despite lower emissions goals <br />of the 2015 Paris Climate Accord, <br />last year's carbon emissions reached <br />a record high.
