That was a nice wooden bridge.

In the Pleistocene the west coast of Florida was about level with Apalachicola in the panhandle, and the east coast extended miles further into the Atlantic.Â
That is not to say that global warming isn’t speeding this process up (it is), but this has still been happening throughout our present glacial interstitial – that is for more than 10,000 years.Â

So nobody considered a rock seawall?

Dang, those 10 years of erosion did some good stuff for the image stabilization!

Finally! A house I could probably afford in another 10-20 years.

There’s a reason there weren’t already houses there when these were built. There’s a reason that people didn’t build on sand for centuries.

I wish more people would post these images. The erosion lacks context. Thank you!

It looks much worse now. I don’t know why they didn’t just leave it the way it was in the top video

Can we not knock these buildings down and haul them away? I guess we just wait until it inevitably falls over and fill the ocean with garbage.

Erosion and climate change leading to sea level rise.

Honestly, zero sympathy. Scientist knew in the 50’s global warming was real. Quess how a majority of SC has been voting during that time??

Wait until the sea level rises.
so, I’m seeing ‘buy cheaper land two streets back from the beach, sell when it becomes beachside for massive profits!’
Winning! /s
Crazy it only took 10 years
Wasn’t there really anything that could have been done to prevent or just reduce the erosion?

This is what happens when you build on a sand bar
Oh no! Won’t someone think of the rich people!
