Deny that it's happening and claim it was Al Gore who made the whole thing up... |
Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Thanks, Hawks, that mapping is great food for thought!
My home would survive a 7 meter sea rise, as there are rising bluffs along the ocean here. The sea would only come in a few meters.
But elsewhere in California, John Steinbeck's Cannery Row in Monterey, along with the wonderful Monterey Bay Aquarium, would be inundated. The city of Alameda would mostly be drowned, as would much of Oakland, Berkeley, Richmond, and San Pablo. San Francisco's Financial District would go the way of Atlantis. Menlo Park would flood.
A new inland sea would appear deep in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Valley, stretching almost from Yuba City to Modesto. This sea would cover Interstate Highway 5, the main West Coast north-south highway. It would also wash out some of the most important fresh water aqueducts in the state. Sacramento itself would be at least partly flooded.
In the state's south, the Gulf of California (which presently does not touch this state) would likely extend almost to Palm Springs, engulfing the present (and shrinking) Salton Sea, and destroying the cities of Indio, El Centro, and Calexico (and Mexicali, across the border in the Mexican State of Baja California Del Norte.)
That's all just Califonia, which is not an especially low-lying or flat state.
Of course, a lesser degree of sea level rise is probably more likely than seven meters, especially in this century.

My house (Christchurch, New Zealand) would be flooded after a 12 meter rise. Assuming it doesn't rain too much. |

Well, Cleveland survives. I guess rising sea levels won't affect the levels of the Great Lakes.
