By the time that happens there will definitely be more CO2 in the
atmosphere than the planet can handle without major changes in global
temperature and sea level.

Hollow assertions of that nature count for nothing.

Florida deserves to vanish from the face of
the Earth for helping to elect the dumbest most inarticulate president
in the history of the USA, but I pity all the other low lying places.

Even the IPCC doesn't expect Florida to vanish from the face of the
earth. In
fact its ** worst case ** scenario for sea level rise is about 2 feet by
the
end of this century. The beaches will get a bit smaller maybe.

The average of Florida is about 2 feet above sea level. A two foot
rise will make it a lot smaller.


Try thinking critically instead of just believing what you're told by an
overtly polically driven pressure group.

... and check the real numbers.
