"If that sounds alarmist, watch this short video.
In it, you’ll see a scientist named Richard Alley in a Skype discussion
with students at Bard College, as well as with Eban Goodstein, director
of the Graduate Programs in Sustainability at Bard. It would be just
another nerdy Skype chat except Alley is talking frankly about something
that few scientists have the courage to say in public: As bad as you
think climate change
might be in the coming decades, reality could be far worse. Within the
lifetime of the students he’s talking with, Alley says, there’s some
risk — small but not as small as you might hope — that the seas could
rise as much as 15-to-20 feet."
