if it did, New York, Miami, LA, San Francisco and others would look like New Orleans does today.


First, melting floating ice doe not affect sea level. Second, even if Antarctic or Greenlandic ice melted, I have a hunch that NYC and Miami would get around to building a few levees over the century in which the rise occurred. And they would be able to afford it, as long as the world economy had not been hobbled by Kyoto-like restrictions.
