On Friday, June 22nd, 2012, the The National Academy of Science issued a press release titled, “California Sea Level Projected to Rise at Higher Rate Than Global Average; Slower Rate for Oregon, Washington, But Major Earthquake Could Cause Sudden Rise”. Just in time for Rio+20.
The press release was picked up by the Associated Press, and in turn, on Saturday the story appeared in newspapers all across the country, including my local paper, and most California papers.
