"Rising sea levels will be the single most profound geologic change recorded in human history. It will transform our physical world beyond anything we can imagine, dwarfing continents and eliminating some nations. Coastlines will move inland by hundreds and, in some places, thousands of feet this century. The impacts will be far greater during the next century. Trillions of dollars of the most valuable real estate and infrastructure will vanish."
John Englander, High Tide on Main Street. Page 3
