The sea level is rising faster in Northeast than it is anywhere else in the country and rates far above average! If it continues, "Boston will see 27 inches of sea-level rise by 2050." Scientists have not reached a consensus on why this is happening, but it is most likely due to glacial meltwater and circulation of warmer currents, all due to greenhouse gases.
