Shoreline gets eaten away by more than climate change. In many places, the shoreline is constantly shifting. Waterfront property is risky!

- strictnein 10y agoYeah, that's my point. They're not reeling from climate change, they're reeling from building a city in a really bad spot.
- athenot 10y agoBut when you live off the sea, you need to be next to the sea.
- Florin_Andrei 10y agoIt seems like the spot was bad to begin with, and now climate change is accelerating the erosion.
- mattkrause 10y agoThe shoreline has probably changed a lot in the 400 years since that area was settled. Also, the IPCC report contains a graph showing that temperatures have been increasing pretty steadily since the 1930s, so it's entirely possible that this is due to climate change.
