Some places are more threatened by rising sea levels than others, but in the end we'll all be paying a price. Alternate titles include: "Where You Shouldn't Invest in Real Estate," "Places You Should Vacation to Before They're Gone," and "Oh Man We're In A Lot Of Trouble On This One Aren't We?"

    “Even if your land doesn’t flood, people are going to come to yours when theirs does....”

    Florida man builds a dam across all of Florida’s coast.

    a bunch of rich people built condos all over our beaches and now we can hardly even access our own beaches. I'm looking forward to watching the ocean swallow them up as the beach comes back to me.
  • Not only would Australia not be affected much it would also most likely benefit from the in land sea as it could bring new places for living around the new coast

    Unfortunately a lot of people are going to make a fortune selling real estate to Aquaman.
  • Imagine the mess when the water starts to percolate the surroundings of large old cities and dissolving everything like land fills, industrial dumps, burial grounds, and as they say the list goes on. Some of it will dissolve completely, some will stick together in clumps and enterally come lose and drift away. Has anyone thought of that?

    September 2023, flooding currently in SE Asia, SE Europe, Desert SW US, Brazil, and more. Most people don't realize that the Hunga Tonga eruption on January 17th 2022 blew so much sea water into the upper atmosphere that total moisture there increased by a full 10%. That moisture is spreading around the globe. Record snowfall dominated the Alps, Japan, and the Sierra Nevada range last winter. Are ready for more?

    He missed a perfect chance to say: Australia and Oceania, in the future Oceania and Oceania
  • Don't forget the recent research that showed that the average sea floor sank 11 mm, that threw off their sea level rise prediction.
  • I remember that in the movie 2012, it's mentioned that Africa took the smallest hit of the waves and such.

    Living a mile above current sea level, waiting for new beach front property to come to me.

    California can avoid flooding in the central basin by ensuring the beavers are building dams in the right places. Natural dams are better than an made dams. Lots of beaver live in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Some need careful relocation closer to the San Francisco Bay delta.

    As a floridian, I can confirm we will just highrise our way out of the ocean.

    Atlas: nails pronunciations of every foreign location. Also Atlas: resgions.
  • @Agnes-kw2hr
    I was not concerned about the sea level at all because I live far from the ocean, but then he started pointing out lakes that could grow out of nowhere and I remembered I live right next to a big lake.

    Virtually no one realizes we're in the middle of an ice age right now.
