Could rising sea levels caused by climate change be thwarted by digging a big hole at the bottom of the sea? - Lemmy.World

I’m not proposing this as an actual solution, it’s just a dumb idea. But if we dug a huge, wide hole at the bottom of the ocean, or maybe widened the Mariana Trench or something, could that extra space make the sea levels drop enough to keep the land from flooding?

Well yeah, but you’d need to dig a crazy huge hole for that, probably the size of multiple mountains
