An Aside: sea levels

2.5 metres is 2500 millimetres. So at a sea level rise of about 3.2 mm per year they have nearly 800 years before they have to build a one meter sea wall.... that should give them about another 300 years.

Except that's not how it works. An average means some are affected more than others. Residents of Miami already know all about this.
