Listen, if the academics actually truly believed they would be flooded out in Florida, every University there would have a plan to relocate in the works.
theoakman saysThe time scale that the coastline would erode away is insigniicant compared to the amount of time it takes to build a city.
What are your numbers?
The sea is currently rising at 1/8 of 1 inch per year or less than a foot per century.
So when do you think the north pole will melt, Florida will drown, and the wetbulb deaths will start?

The beaches look exactly the same at age 40 as they did when I was a kid.
Downtown Miami has flooded after any substantial storm and has since I was a kid; it's because since the 1930s they've constantly postponed adequate drainage relative to the amount of asphalt.

Cities can be built faster now than in the past, and that will likely accelerate with 3D printing and automated construction. Frankly, many places in Europe are encumbered by old construction, and might do better to build new. Most people who have worked in construction prefer to build new rather than trying to renovate archaic structures, unless they have some special affection for antiques and period restoration.

...and pay over $100 billion USD per year to kleptocracies in the southern hemisphere, and the Clinton Foundation, none of which would enable managing the climate. That is the part that looks most like a scam: money or your life, and the money won't actually save your life, regardless of whether there is a danger. To the contrary, taxing the scientifically advanced countries to subsidize backwards kleptocracies would actually delay the development of geo-engineering that might enable managing the climate.

From what I see from most Democrats that preach AGW, they never talk about solutions. It is like a religion where belief is the most important aspect. Just argue the case for AGW to the heretics, and vote Democrat to show you care.

Thanks for proving my point.
Two years of expanding ice "Let's wait 40 years like the 1930-1970 period"
Season not over yet with shrinking ice "Why wait? Shrinking Ice! We're all gonna die!"
Dude, why do we need to wait until this particular season is over? You think one good winter is gonna change everything?

Right on.
Two other things:
1. Stop importing migrants with or who will have 3-5 children, increasing the CO2 emissions, in a Western area where the population is naturally declining and becoming more efficient with energy use. Immigration from the 3rd World to the First is 180 degrees from environmental protection.
2. Stop giving aid to Third Worlders.

Al Roker literally lied through his teeth today going on about the unprecedented high temperatures in Alaska today. Anchorage will be a whole 6 degrees above average and nowhere near its record. Please stop alarming.
Here is also a great table showing on average, the USA is not getting hotter. Note how many record highs are pre 1960.

I have put out an internet challenge that no one seems to want to take me up on. It is simple. I am agnostic. While I technically fall into the "skeptic" or "denier" category, it is simply because I question the methodology and the politics of man-made climate-change science. I am open to being convinced, but no one seems to be able to provide anything other than future predictions. So, for the Patrick.net crowd, the same challenge I have made before, to please show me one prior doom and gloom climate change prediction that actually came true, or to show me a past and present picture demonstrating rising sea level.
I know the trolls and vicious defenders of man caused climate change will just assume that I haven't looked up the readily available evidence for climate change. Before you attack me, be forewarned that I have probably got considerable evidence to support being skeptical.
Here is a GIF I made of a famous landmark in San Diego. The Coronado Bridge was built in the late 60s. You will notice that the high waterline is pretty much in the same place. I live on the Pacific Coast. It has been alleged that sea level rise is magnified on this coast, yet I can also show pictures much older that again have no noticeable difference on the high water line.
Here is a 130 year span showing no rise at La Jolla Cove.
