If sea levels rise due to glaciers melting and we lose our beaches, could we find a way to displace the ocean?

Question

I certainly dont want to see the ocean rise nor do I want my grandchildren to see it either. As crazy as this sounds say the global warming effort to reduce emissions just does not happen fast enough,
How about displacing the ocean as it rises and actually keep our beaches? Even bring the beaches back to were they were 100 years ago . Perhaps by displacing the water to outer space with some future vacume technology.
Any other Ideas? I cant image science and technology not finding a way.

Answer 1

Global warming is BS. how do we know that this is not a cycle that the Earth goes through every thousands or millions of years.

Answer 2

Global warming isn't bullshit. It is a possibility that it could be a cycle the earth is going through, but either way dangerous things are happening and we are only worsening them. I hate to say this, but I think the oceans rising although fatal could almost be helpful in a way to our survival because the ocean absorbs a lot of harmful carbon dioxide that we emit and over the past decade or so we are putting more and more into the atmoshpere. What happens if some day (if the earth doesn't collapse for some other reason) we emit so much and continue to tear down forest which also take in carbon, that there is so much that they can't take it all in. Then we're gone. It's just a theory but still a possibility.

Answer 3

You cannot displace the oceans. They aren't a backyard pool you can just empty at will. Water is the one of the most destructive forces of nature. It's better to spend our time and resources trying to figure out how to prevent/mitigate/deal with the results of global warming than to try to come up with a pie-in-the-sky solution to siphon it into outer space.

I'm far more concerned about an oil bust than I am about global warming, though I find it quite troubling. Once oil becomes scarce, and we stop pumping so much CO2 in the atmosphere, the planet will correct itself.

Of course, then the global warming ostriches of the world with their heads in the sand will run around saying they were right all along.

Answer 4

you're precise besides sea ranges needless to say upward thrust together as the temperature rises regardless of whether or not glaciers have been present before than the warming or not. for occasion, this is why there could be hurricane surge throughout a hurricane. a similar does not preserve certainly for a cup of water with ice in it, on the grounds that the water is far purer in a glass of ice water. additionally, persons do not look apprehensive approximately sea ranges rising from glaciers melting that have been already interior the sea, whether instead land usual ice. because of the fact of this persons understanding on Greenland and Antarctica as places that could drastically distinction the climate if the ice there have been to soften.

Answer 5

space deportation is too costly and, if you think about it, would only increase the greenhouse emission that are keyed to climate change.

one possibility is to desalinate the ocean water to use to irrigate croplands as the same changes that will contribute to the melting of the polar ice and glaciers may also have a devastating effect on the snow caps that hold water for use later in the spring and summer growing season when it melts and runs into rivers.

this could be done with solar heating to reduce electrical consumption. which is also a good idea because....

as the planet warms and the amount of fossil fuels continue to be depleted, the need to store food will be hampered by a strain on the ability to refrigerate perishables and, although not in your lifetime, salt (the solid byproduct of desalination)was historically a natural preservative for such protein items as meat.

Answer 6

The TOPEX/POSEIDON (T/P) satellite mission data seems to indicate a global increase in mean sea level of 3.2 mm/yr. That's 32 cm or 12.6 inches per century. While the sea level creeps up, the sea creates more beach, just as it has been doing for millions of years.

I don't think you or your great-great grandchildren have a lot to worry about in this regard.

Answer 7

Global warming IS real and NOT a cycle the earth goes through as a previous member remarked. Ignorance.... I tell you.

Your theory sounds good BUT expensive.

Answer 8

We are not losing our beaches, they are just moving.
