Zeta Taskforce posted:There will likely be some point this year where the 2024 temperature line will dip slightly below 2023. This will be interpreted as the situation stabilizing, 2023 being an anomaly, and therefore business as usual is fine. Alternatively, this doesn't happen and it fully breaks a ton of people who think they're already all doomed out

Paradoxish posted:Alternatively, this doesn't happen and it fully breaks a ton of people who think they're already all doomed out I'm still on the fence if this is just another record wobble in the destabilization of the climate or if this actually a tipping point Nobody should really be wanting that to happen but I'd be interested in a few things if it did The AMOC collapse keeps having its date ranges pushed forward and none of those models really account for the oceans getting implausibly hot all of a sudden.

Good old sand If anything can withstand the tides, it's surely sand oh gently caress where'd all of our sand go

Spending half a million dollars piling up a bunch of unstabilized sand instead of doing even the slightest bit of "google the wikipedia page and skim it" level of research on how sand dunes are held together really gives me hope for our ability to successfully adapt to further challenges

I seem to recall reading somewhere that there's a chance of running out of sand suitable for making glass because it has to be sand created via the tides - desert sand, made with the wind, is too sharp and angular to be used in this way

Crushed up rocks have the correct texture to make concrete but architects don't like it because it doesn't look as nice as beach sand.

Then spent nearly as much to have it fail in 3 days.

Pidgin Englishman posted:I bet they got a quote of $750k for a proper retaining wall, went "hah, my business brain genius knows that's a rip, we could do it with just sand!" You need a seawall for a situation like that and oceanfront property owners absolutely despise seawalls. Building one essentially destroys your beach and may even be illegal since they tend to gently caress up coastlines in areas further down that aren't protected. Oceanfront property in general is often a big, fat losing game because anything that removes your beach will tank the value of your insanely overpriced property.

if they want to actually do something, az24-700 sheetpile wall with outboard riprap and well-graded infill will work until the hypercane comes. but it's going to cost like $25m and better hope all the richies signs onto looking at an ugly sheet pile wall out their back window with no one holding out not doing it hire me rich ppl, ill only charge $250k to design it Xaris has issued a correction as of 06:18 on Mar 13, 2024 |
