A Very cool (pun intended! :-D ) interactive presentation to show what will be inundated IF all the ice polar ice melts!
Houston! We have a problem!
Naturally the shore line areas will be drastically impacted. But FLORIDA! All of Florida will be gone. It's pretty eye opening and interesting.
National Geographic - Rising Seas
Enjoy!
[And before you begin FREAKING OUT (LOL!) - it would take a very long time to happen so you would have LOTS of time to relocate inland.
To demo the length of time it might take, I took out my fridge's ice pan (16 inches long, 7 inches tall and 12 inches wide) that was filled with ice cubes and set it in the sink, under an open window. Only half the ice melted over night. The take away, my ice is not nearly as dense/thick as the polar ice, nor is my home as cold as those areas of the world... ]
