In 1000 years , sea levels could uprise as much as 28 meters , placing London , as well as many other metropolis , squarely subaqueous . Because it can be hard to see just what those come up body of water mean , one creative person has rank a glowing high - water scar around some of London ’s most big monument .
Michael Pinksy ’s Plunge illustration is meant to give Londoners a sense of their possible washy apocalypse . He order blue guide rings on three pillars , the Seven Dials Sundial pillar , the Duke of York column , and the Paternoster Square pillar , at 28 meters above ocean story , the demonstrate just how much of the columns and the neighboring buildings could be underwater if climate variety occurs according to current prediction . His goal is to raise cognisance of the effect of carbon copy emissions on the environment .
It would be cool to see something like this , but on a large scale leaf . I imagine that these LED rings would have a more chilling effect if they appeared everywhere in a city , create a sort of glowing ghostly surface for the predicted future flood .
