Sea level at Fernandina Beach, FL has been rising at 2.08 mm/year since the 1890’s. The city is only 10 feet above sea level, which means they will drown on October 24, 3415. (They may actually get an extra day or two since there has been no sea level rise there for 25 years.)
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

I don’t know what to think about Fernandina Beach. A lot of turnover. A French pirate and a Scottish soldier of fortune couldn’t hold onto it and moved on. The Spanish came twice and left again. This is from a puff piece written by Lawrence who lives there and likes the place:
And here it is with more detail:

I think sea level rise is not one of their problems. Extrapolated from the past, the Spanish will come and go six times before the place drowns in the sea.
Sea level rise at Fernandia Beach is decelerating at a negative rate* of -0.007 mm/yr² which is consistent the satellite data. Well except that the satellite data from Colorado University’s Sea Level Research Group has been bumped up by nearly a millimeter per years over the last decade or so.

No acceleration but a nice periodicity. 1930is was hot.
Fears of sea level rise causes some countries to consider spending $billions on climate reparations to the UN to help poor Pacific islands at sea level that are living in fear of inundation.
Some countries at sea level are spending billions of dollars and preparing for their demise in the most unusual ways.

Here too! How about the “Big Dig” in Boston?
Why yes – the fear sea level rise causes the most unusual building projects at sea level. I understand that total cost exceeded $24 billion.
We should put together a list of these. 😀
