              In about ten years, they'll be able to connect all three with a land bridge made out of plastic garbage

                            Am American. Can confirm, we are very stupid, which means we’ll probably try this.

                                  The bering strait is probably doable. The ol land bridge is underwater there somewhere. Just build a bridge on top of that.
                                  If it keeps getting hotter, we are all going to want to move to alaska.

                                    Because that would need more than like four tons of sand.

                                          Here's why. The Kansai International Airport filled about 180k cubic km of land for about $15b. Given the shape is about 8m square km, and an average seafloor depth of about 3km, this project would cost about $1500 trillion dollars. That's slightly under half of the new ICE budget and would not be approved by Congress.
