According to a 2015 study, sea levels could rise over 20 feet by the year 2200.

To appreciate the real-world impact this may have, Climate Central teamed with talented designer Nickolay Lamm to show how present-day cities would look with the impending changes in sea levels.

This disturbing slideshow illustrates just how imperative it is to begin reducing CO2 output into our atmosphere ASAP.

He lived with tremors for 35 years, then one surgery did the impossible

For more than three decades, Neville Waterstorm couldn’t do something most of us never think twice about, drinking from a glass without spilling. Living with essential tremors meant that even basic tasks were an everyday struggle. But a revolutionary new procedure performed at Gold Coast University Hospital in Australia has changed all that.

Neville's hands have steadied thanks to a surgery that doesn’t require incisions. The treatment targets the specific brain activity responsible for tremors, using MRI guidance to disrupt the problematic neural patterns non-invasively. And the results? Instant and incredible.

5 body language habits that make you instantly more likable

The sayings “Actions speak louder than words” and “It’s not what you say, but how you say it” are popular adages for good reason. Our silent body language speaks volumes, but we may not always be aware of what we’re saying with it, how we hold ourselves, our gestures, and even how we make eye contact, which can make a huge difference in how people perceive us.

And that perception makes a difference. People form a first impression within seconds, and some research shows that traits like trustworthiness are judged within a tenth of a second of meeting someone.

Jack Black reflects on his wild, unrealized plan to audition for 'SNL' as a superhero.

Jack Black recalls his absurd, aborted plan to audition for 'SNL' as a superhero

As of this writing, Jack Black has hosted Saturday Night Live four times and appeared twice as the musical guest as part of the duo Tenacious D. These are huge accomplishments—but given his enormous profile as a film star and music-comedy giant, it’s easy to wonder why he was never hired for the sketch show’s main cast. (The pairing seems obvious, right? Imagine the alternate universe where he and Will Ferrell are trading lines.)

But that missed opportunity wasn’t SNL’s fault. Black simply never auditioned for the show, despite having a bizarre plan in place for how he’d approach it. In a laid-back chat with SNL alumnus Amy Poehler on her Good Hangpodcast, the actor opened up about his hilarious yet aborted concept—and how his own insecurities may have prevented him from taking that potentially life-changing plunge.

Millennials debate the ‘best’ mediocre VHS movie and gawk at the entries

If there is one set of initials that could describe the Millennial generation, it would be three simple letters: V-C-R. Home video tapes and movies were a primary source of entertainment throughout the youth of those years. In fact, there is a whole genre of films that could be described as “that one movie that my family had” that wasn’t necessarily great but was just a part of the household’s collection.

The list of films tended to be mid-budget movies that weren’t necessarily hits when they were released in theaters but were somehow home video hits through Christmas gifts, birthday gifts, or random rentals at video stores. The folks on Reddit jumped at the chance to share their picks for this offbeat genre.

If you want to live to 100, doctors say this neglected muscle predicts your chances

We’re all trying to make the most out of our time on Earth. We watch our diets, exercise, and have our doctors test us in various ways in order to maximize our potential lifespans. However, there is one consistently accurate gauge that could determine whether you’re going to live to see 100: grip strength.

That’s right, in a day and age in which people spend small fortunes to test blood, submit to imaging scans, and use state-of-the-art technology to measure and extend their lifespan, one of the best metrics is to just hold and squeeze a tennis ball as hard as you can for as long as you can. In a 44-year-long study, the participants had their grip strength measured initially at ages 56 through 68 years old at the start, and had their grip strength measured routinely throughout the study. The participants who reached the 100-year age mark were 2.5 times likely to have the highest third grip strength measured in the overall study.

Woman coming out of anesthesia has an adorable reaction to learning how many kids she has

“Some people shouldn’t have kids, but this is how I reacted when I found out I had kids after coming off anesthesia,” content creator Belle Blake said in a TikTok video that’s since gone viral, with over 75K likes on the platform. Woozy and bandaged from a rhinoplasty, Blake was delighted to learn on the car ride home that not only did she have children, she had four. “FOUR BABIES? Oh my god, I hit the Lotto!” she said. “I should get a winning scratch-off ticket. Where can you get a scratch-off ticket?”

“Are they gorgeous?” she asked her husband as they drove home, and he confirmed they in fact were. “I am just like, you're welcome, everyone. All my kids deserve pancakes and bacon,” she said, through her post-surgery haze.
