## What is After Ice?

Experience climate change and the effects of global warming through augmented reality! 

After Ice simulates your location in various data-backed future scenarios of global ice melt and sea level rise. Additionally, it lets you see the NASA-projected* effect of sea level rise accurately within a 100 mile radius of New York City in the 2080s — within the lifetime of children alive today.

After Ice is an artist intervention via mobile app, a collaboration between visual artist Justin Brice Guariglia and award-winning app development studios Strange Flavour and second verse.  


*Projections for NYC come from NASA/GISS & NPCC data and accurate within a 100 mile radius of New York City, and includes storm and tidal surge estimates in it’s visualization.  Total melt projections come from the Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center.

### 4/5 — Why is the beginning so freaking hard

*2020-08-10*

You have to do all of this stuff

### 1/5 — Fake

*2018-04-09*

This is the crappiest propaganda ever
According to this it doesn’t know wether I’ll be above sea level under it by 38ft or even below it by 238 ft?!? Junk

### 5/5 — Fun and useful app

*2017-06-27*

It's a great little app for helping to spread the word about sea level rise.
I would love it if it included a line like "The ground where you are standing will be N feet above or below sea level in 2080" or when all the ice melts.

### 4/5 — Needs more info

*2017-05-06*

Okay so I'll be above sea level. But by how much? It'd be nice if the app gave an estimate on that.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2017-04-27*

This is pointless propaganda, trying to scare people into more big government taxation and ill-advised regulations that will hurt our economy and quality of life.

### 4/5 — A unique approach

*2017-04-22*

This is a unique approach to helping people understand the severity of the consequences of climate change. I, fortunately or unfortunately, live on an area that even with complete melting, we'd be above sea level. I wish the app had the ability to choose other places around the world. Otherwise, oddly fun, considering the subject matter and a different way of spreading the word. I will recommend to all I know!

### 1/5 — Really?

*2017-04-21*

Pitiful, worst junk app I've seen. I deleted it in a matter of minutes.
