This also means rising ocean levels can't be held back by sea walls or dikes. It will just come up from below ground. Florida is basically a giant sandbar.
(Obligatory yes I know that the people who will be most immediately harmed by sea level rise are the most marginalized and that having a bunch of Florida in our oceans will obviously be bad for everyone, I lived in that garbage state for long enough to justify rooting against it as an institution and obviously don't wish ill on our Floridian comrades and don't wish for all of the toxic shit on Florida's surface to get swept away and fuck up the ocean ecology)
You can't build down in Florida, the most of the state is 10 feet above the water table, the coastal areas (like where this is) are usually less.

It was a foolish man who built his house upon the sand.
Maybe you couldn't but I'm different.
