Worst case global warming and skyscrapers
 

Suppose (for the sake of argument) the icecaps really melt.
How will coastal skyscrapers fare? Will they rise up like islands, or will they be washed away by the waves?

The structures usually aren't designed to take that sort of water damage, so they'd probably get condemned pretty quick, but they'd stay standing for a while probably.

Please stop making threads.

some will get wet.

lol dude, it's already happening, you better start believing it because a lot of people are in danger.

these very recent roof avalanches in turkey are a sign of global warming!

Please tell me that you are you not conflating weather and climate.

Good job there aren't any skyskrapers in Scotland lol

I think we already have a thread for potential sea level rise. Can a mod merge this with the "what we will lose thread" or whatever it is called.
