Someone here once posted a website were you could type in the sea level
rise and it would map out what land portions would be lost. When I did that
I was amazed at just how little land was actually lost to rising oceans.
According to everything I read, they always make it sound like it's massive
amounts of land but it's really not until you melt all the ice.

If enough ice melts to raise the levels by 15 feet, you gain way WAY more
inhabitable land (especially in Canada and Russia) than you lose. And
that's about what they are predicting.
