London below Sea Level

Not a week passes by without scientists uncovering further potential consequences of global warming. One effect of climate change may be huge rises in sea level as the ice in the poles melt. A group of European researchers have developed a new way of seeing such a scenario. They weren't focussing on how to predict extreme sea level rise, but rather wanted to understand the how people might react to a higher risk of extreme flooding. Would they build new flood defences or rather retreat to safer areas? An ideal place to test such responses is London.

Curious the things people do; when the Thames started to flood Hammersmith Mall a few years ago I watched a man attempt to mop it up and empty it down a drain! Just as well the Tide started to go down before very long.

Sea Level Rise Opportunities

Future Water Proof Corporation (FWPC) is a venture-capital backed enterprise embracing the challenges of climate change, and in particular rising sea levels, through the implementation of Global Warming Utilization Management.

FWPC sees the future rise in sea levels as an opportunity to maximise business growth, while at the same time improving the lives of everyday city-dwellers.
