If the oceans are rising, then the Island Nations need to be abandoned. Mankind can not stop the tides. If you believe that the oceans are rising by many feet even yards in the next few decades. Why are you not demanding that any city in the projected flood area begin to plan now. No new buildings in the projected flood ares. All buildings in the area scheduled to be torn down to prevent the massive pollution that will occur when those cities flood. New Orleans should have been abandoned decades ago.
