My solution would be for the US to purchase Kiribati and relocate the citizens to the Texas coast. The EEZ would then be turned into a conversation zone. The USN would use it as an MOA to keep out the tuna fleets. Once Kiribati is under water, those EEZs would turn into international waters. It has been a few years, but IIRC there isn't much impingement of other nations' EEZs on that of Kiribati.
