"I guess they will have to move inland. What is the big deal? People move all the time."

Nah...the Dutch figured all this out centuries ago. Building a Dutch-style levee system is expensive, but a LOT less expensive than tearing down and re-building whole new cities.

I foresee Dutch companies landing a lot of construction and consulting jobs.

According to their chart, this will happen by 2100 and the temperature is already on the rise... so shouldn’t these cities be partially flooded already? Or will the flood happen suddenly at midnight Dec 31, 2099?

The whole article is fantasy or science fiction at best.

Delingpole: Now 400 Scientific Papers in 2017 Say ‘Global Warming’ Is a Myth

When I reported earlier this year on the 58 scientific papers published in 2017 that say global warming is a myth the greenies’ heads exploded.

Since then, that figure has risen to 400 scientific papers.

Can you imagine the misery and consternation and horror this is going to cause in the corrupt, rancid, rent-seeking world of the Climate Industrial Complex?

I can. It will look something like this.

Just to be clear, so the greenies can’t bleat about being misrepresented, here is what these various papers say:

Can we add San Fransicko, LA and New York to that list? Relocate those people to, say, Canada?

So, in other words, the shore lines will return to their previous locations. Someday. Maybe. Assuming all of this "settled science" doesn't get over-written by the next "global cooling rage", like in the 1980's, or whenever it was.

I’d say Guam tipping over is of much more concern to me.

If global warming was a real problem then these people would be recommending solutions that would actually address the coming crisis. Like improving levees or preparing for a regional shift in agriculture.

No all we get is more government solutions that would, even if fully implemented do absolutely nothing the change the climate.

Perhaps the should try a different sales pitch.
