Sea level rise projections relative to a 1995-2014 baseline.
Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP): SSP1-1.9: very low GHG emissions - CO₂ emissions cut to net zero around 2050. SSP1-2.6: low GHG emissions - CO₂ emissions cut to net zero around 2075. SSP2-4.5: intermediate GHG emissions - CO₂ emissions around current levels until 2050, then falling but not reaching net zero by 2100: SSP3-7.0: high GHG emissions - CO₂ emissions double by 2100. SSP5-8.5: very high GHG emissions - CO₂ emissions triple by 2075.

Sea level rise projections in Edinburgh, U.K. 2020-2150, by scenario
Sea levels are projected to rise in Edinburgh under various Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP). In 2020, there was a sea level rise of *** centimeters under every scenario, relative to a **** baseline. It is expected that sea levels in Edinburgh will rise under the SSP1-1.6 scenario **** meters (m) by 2150 and **** m under the SSP1-2.6 scenario by the same year.
The highest projected sea level rise in Edinburgh is under the SSP5-8.5 scenario, reaching **** m by 2150.
