Projects That Will Fight Sea Level Rise 

Great suggestion, I'll try to remember for future videos

Not an actual plan, a proposal made mostly to highlight what ridiculous lengths we may have to go to if we don't lower emissions. If I recall correctly, in reality that "North Sea Dike" would just flood the North Sea even more because of how many rivers flow into it and the Baltic. Still an interesting concept nonetheless

Both are impacting sea levels, but isostatic adjustment is not even close to as big a factor as sea level rise. Only parts of Scandinavia (mainly Northern Sweden) are seeing uplift. Most of Scandinavia (Southern Sweden, Norway, Denmark) are sinking very slightly. But we're talking 0.1mm per year. Sea levels have risen 91.3mm between 1993 and 2020, that's an average of 3.4mm per year or 34 times as much as the isostatic adjustment in the countries I covered here. Sea level rise is also accelerating, today we're seeing more than that average (from what I can gather around 3.6mm per year) Isostatic adjustment meanwhile is a lot more constant and much less significant. Even the areas facing the most sinking due to isostatic adjustment (Mainly the US, Middle America, and Western Australia) are only sinking by 0.5-0.7mm per year. That's certainly not good but sea level rise is much more impactful.
