Climatologist announced the possibility of flooding two cities in Russia

According to Kokorin, the issue of raising the world's oceans is a "problem of the XXII century."

“According to the worst estimates, the ascent can be 3-5 m. Then it will be a problem for many.

And for St. Petersburg the question will arise, and for Arkhangelsk, "- said the climatologist.

At the same time, Alexei Karnaukhov, a leading researcher, specialist in natural disasters, Federal Research Center Pushchino Scientific Center for Biological Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences, believes that, perhaps, these problems can be avoided.

“It all depends on how we will reduce emissions and deal with global warming,” he said.

Earlier, climatologist, senior researcher at the Institute of Water Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Nina Zaitseva, in an interview with the NSN, assessed climate change in Russia.
