People are stupid, hypocritical, and in denial. Plus you forgot to mention greed. 
Why would anyone care about 100years ahead? Waterfront has always had premium. You can always sell it to the next guy, it only needs to last enough for maybe 50 years, before the next guy considers not buying it, no?
Or sea level rise is a hoax promoted by unqualified âscientistsâ? Can we get a Princeton professor commenting on sea level rise? I never heard of any credible name behind sea level rise forecast. Itâs hard to believe that such an world changing phenomenon is not studied by top scientists. So many PhD students work on useless trivial issues, why not present me a good research on sea level rise.
I wanted to believe, but it really feels fishy.
Seriously?
Yes, just give a reputable name so that we can get more questions answered. Why are the sea level scientists so reluctant to give out their names? Why are the top scientists so cold hearted to ignore the enormous danger to human beings?
Thatâs political propaganda. There is no peer reviewed paper and no scientist names. We need accountability. If I study sea level and am confident with my research, I will want my name to be published so that I can get credit for my hard work.
Scientists care about publication since publication is their life. When they refuse to publish their names, I find it suspicious
The issue is to keep getting funds for research, you need to provide the result the person paying wants. They have to say the sea level is rising, or they wonât have a job. We donât find out until decades later how biased the science was.
Just look at the studies funded by sugar lobbyists that said fat is bad for us. Thatâs exactly when obesity rates started to increase in the US. The bad science means the food pyramid was wrong for decades and Americans got nutrition advice thatâd make them fat.
We get sensational headlines about 2016 being a scorcher and the hottest year on record. It was 0.01 degrees warmer than 2015 and the margin of error is 0.1 degrees. That wouldnât make an exciting headline thatâd sell though.
Science has become an embarrassment. We let journalist create sensational and inaccurate headlines that âinformâ us of what the science says.
Why get a brain fart. Just rent donât buy on the beach⌠no need too worry that way
Man - if i canât convince you about thisâŚ
Not just waterfront properties. Miami would be under water with its 3.5 million people.
Florida is pretty flat. Do we need to evacuate the whole Florida state? Or build levee around Florida coast?
With many many trillions of dollars at stake and many millions of people at stake, we canât even get the name of the sea level scientist. You would think that the top scientists at the worldâs top universities would weigh in their opinion. We donât hear anything from them. Whereâs their heart? This sea level rise is 1 billion times more important than their petty research.
Cities already started to spend hundreds of millions on fighting sea level rise, yet we donât even have a single peer reviewed paper and a credible scientist to refer to.

Too safe. 50 ft above is all youâll ever need⌠
Or you can believe environmentalists are full of shit.
After all this is what the thought in 1970âŚBTW Einhorn was a whackjob and a murderer
But Einhorn wasnât the only threat to Earth Dayâs reputation. The history of environmental activismâs biggest day is as cloudy as the ozone layer so many activists are fighting to save. Far more embarrassing than Einhorn? The fact that Earth Day was initially promoted as a way to fight global cooling. âThe world has been chilling sharply for about 20 years,â prominent ecologist Kenneth Watt told an audience at Swarthmore College in 1970, noting that if it continued, âthe world will be about four degrees colderâ by 1990 and 11 degrees colder by 2000.
Watt wasnât the only one convinced that Earth was on the brink of disaster. Stanford University biologist Paul Ehrlich claimed there would be worldwide famine by 2000. It was also predicted that gas masks would be required in large metropolitan areas by 2010, that Earth would be depleted of most metals by 2000 and that American life expectancy would drop to 42 years old.
Paul Erlich was the poster child for gloom and doom in 1970âŚUnrepentant and wrong for 50 yearsâŚThe environmental movement is full of these liarsâŚ
Critics have disputed Ehrlichâs main thesis about overpopulation and its effects on the environment and human society, and his solutions, as well as some of his specific predictions made since the late 1960s. One criticism concerns Ehrlichâs allegedly alarmist and sensational statements and inaccurate âpredictionsâ. Ronald Bailey of Reason Magazine has termed him an âirrepressible doomster ⌠who, as far as I can tell, has never been right in any of his forecasts of imminent catastrophe.â[5] On the first Earth Day in 1970, he warned that â[i]n ten years all important animal life in the sea will be extinct. Large areas of coastline will have to be evacuated because of the stench of dead fish.â[5][25] In a 1971 speech, he predicted that: âBy the year 2000 the United Kingdom will be simply a small group of impoverished islands, inhabited by some 70 million hungry people.â âIf I were a gambler,â Professor Ehrlich concluded before boarding an airplane, " I would take even money that England will not exist in the year 2000."[5][25] When this scenario did not occur, he responded that âWhen you predict the future, you get things wrong. How wrong is another question. I would have lost if I had had taken the bet. However, if you look closely at England, what can I tell you? Theyâre having all kinds of problems, just like everybody else.â[5] Ehrlich wrote in The Population Bomb that, âIndia couldnât possibly feed two hundred million more people by 1980.â[16]
Ok if that were the case then no need to hide up there at 6000 ft⌠time to acquire some properties at the beachfront and enjoy life at sea levelâŚ,
