Again, all this ice is melting and the sea level rise isn't even measurable. So either the ice isn't melting or some other unknown mechanism is in play.
People who already live below sea level don't count, on account of its a really bad idea overall and throughout human history anything man made holding back sea water is at the seas mercy and is going to fail. It's only a matter of time.
To believe otherwise is delusional.

Sea level rise is affecting millions of people - get this - all over the world. People are having to abandon their homes, because of either chronic flooding or erosion. Big cities like Miami FL, and Norfolk VA and several countries like Bangladesh and Fiji and other island nations - are having lots of problems because of sea level rise.
Sea level rise IS measurable, and it is accelerating. Sea walls do not work in Florida, for instance, and they can only work so long. Eventually, it will become untenable.
