This is old news. My father was born in a house that is below sea level today, protected by huge dikes. The ocean is rising and has been for some time. It was once about 400 feet lower and it will go up another 70 feet just from Greenland melting. Then if Antarctica melts, it will really go up. This is the scenario we now need to prepare for, not just the occasional high waves hitting one area due to one storm.

Most of the cities of the world will need to move in the near future because we warmed the earth up too much!
