I would love for some climate science folks to weigh in here.
I know that bold action may be needed. It this such an action, or is this just a way to plunge us into an ice age quicker?

With global temperatures poised to exceed the 1.5 °C Paris Agreement threshold—a level that triggered substantial ice-sheet collapse during the Last Interglacial—low-elevation coastal zones face sea-level commitments far beyond current planning horizons. With this geological frame of reference, we examine the impact of sea-level rise on what may be the most physically vulnerable coastal zone in the world using prehistoric and contemporary patterns of human mobility. We highlight the positive aspects of the recently commenced out-migration in this region and argue that the fate of communities landwards of this coastal zone will be decided in the next few decades. Climate change-induced sea-level rise poses a significant societal challenge, but the extent of potential inundation remains uncertain. Looking at the recent geologic past and at prehistoric human adaptation provides valuable insights into possible new coastlines and strategies to help inform the future of modern coastal communities.

(We really screwed this up, didn't we? -.-)
Paul explains why #NewOrleans is sinking and needs immediate start of evacuation, and the cause of widely underestimated sea level rise.

☁️ Stratocumulus clouds are often considered “quiet”: 🤫They are associated with a stable atmosphere and mainly studied for their role in Earth’s radiation budget on long timescales 🌍. But they also have a "noisy" side, as our researcher Hairu Ding will show at this year's #PintOfScience in #Hamburg .
