Looking forward to my house turning into beachfront property here in Orlando, FL!


Sounds nice except for you wont have any water to drink because all of the freshwater aquifers in Florida will have been infiltrated by sea-water. And this estimate of 1 meter of rise is on the low end of the estimates I've seen. Hope you get exactly the amount of seawater rise you need and also can fund your own desalination plant.


Eh, Florida has enough green lawns to water that they're making good progress salinizing their aquifers without any rising tide necessary.
