There is something to Commissioner McVoy's concerns--
While many, including some lawmakers, greet these reports with a
strong dose of skepticism, the fact remains that nearly 5 million people
in the U.S. live within 4 feet of the local high-tide level — many of
them in South Florida. Skepticism is fine. But denial may prove to be foolish.

I picked up the Lake Worth Herald today and this paper continues to mock. WTF is his his problem and what does he have against a legitimate concern? Not an intellectual genius I guess.
Scientists are bringing more and more awareness to the definite change in sea levels rising due to global warming. People are much more educated today than they were even 5 years ago. It is A-Ok with some people to spend $131 million that we don't have but to dismiss the possibility of rising water is folly. Just wait until the next hurricane or even the next big rain that flooded out Golfview and cars were ruined with water up to their doors. It is something that is happening but it shouldn't be ridiculed to the extent that some take just to be nasty or act wise.
Flooding will become more frequent as sea level rises. In a sense, today’s flood will become tomorrow’s high tide, as sea level rise will cause flooding to occur more frequently and last for longer durations of time.
I listen to Rush every day, and he says climate change and sea level rise is a myth perpetuated by the lamestream media.
Everyone is entitled to an opinion.
