A Brooklyn-based artist has created a free iPhone app designed to help people imagine the effects of rising sea levels. After Ice, launched last Thursday by Justin Brice Guariglia, uses data from Nasa, as well as geolocation and augmented reality, to enable users to experience a submerged New York City. Users can also print out stickers to place on buildings to indicate the levels to which waters could rise by the 2080s. Increased global warming and melting ice could result in a sea level rise of six feet by 2100, according to the New York Panel on Climate Change.
