Global sea level was projected to increase until the end of the century under all greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions scenarios. At a very low GHG emission scenario, global sea level was expected to increase by 38 centimeters, when compared to a 1995-2014 baseline. In contrast, in a high emissions scenario, sea level rise worldwide was expected to be twice as high, at 77 centimeters.
