Doughboy, I'm sure you are aware there are many datasets which indicate the world has been warming since the Pleistocene glacial period. I don't care to have this debate with you, as I have moved past it, and told you so months ago.
What you have to realize, is that it does not matter what the root cause of the warming is, or whether it is manmade or natural. The important thing is it is happening, the world is getting warmer. The only thing that matters is how you plan to survive and to prepare your descendants to survive.
Because you see, we are not going to stop burning FF's, not ever. If we ceased to burn FF's billions of people would starve, it's not ever happening.
What is your plan to get your genes among the "saved"?
As for the topic of this thread, both Isle de Jean Charles and Newtok are toasted, it doesn't really matter which pops up first. Both coastal Alaska and the whole Mississippi delta and in fact all low lying coastal areas will flood, including New York City. By the way, them Cajuns are not moving anywhere that is 30-40 feet in altitude above their current beloved fetid swamps. They will however, be happy to let you pay to move them to a place only two feet higher and then pay again to move them 15 or 20 times, as long as they get to live in a house raised barely above the water and mud squishes between their toes when it rains. Just like the riverbank dwellers are happy to have the government rebuild their town for the 30th time.
Personally, I chose to live next to a huge fresh water lake which is 577 feet above sea level, and whose water level is regulated by a series of locks which will still be perfectly functional with the Atlantic Ocean 30 or 40 feet higher than it is now.
You see, I have a plan. I am not waiting for the "government" to save me. Then I'm teaching my grandkids to save themselves. Because I know beyond the slightest shadow of a doubt that the government exists for and cares for itself, not for the taxpayers. Most adults figure this out eventually.
That is why Isle de Jean Charles and Newtok are toasted. Until then, the debate over which is "saved" creates the useful deception that the government cares.
