Humans are not fish, and cannot remain in place when farmland becomes shallow salt water ocean.

Sea level rises are merely one of the things that can cause mass displacement, no matter how much other people moan about it.

I’m fairly optimistic about the future — I see this warning from the UN and think “this degree of reduction in greenhouse gas emissions is achievable in this timeframe” — but even so I’m still expecting New Orleans and a significant depth of the Italian coast from roughly San Marino to Trieste to disappear.
