Current Events > Why haven't we heard of any costal town reporting higher sea levels?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Or have we? I never see any reports of popular beach destinations complain about rising sea levels overtaking their beaches. Vacation sites need to introduce sand to keep the ocean from wearing away the beach which is normal since large beaches aren't natural but I haven't seen any reports of rising sea levels making this harder.

Lots of posters here live near the shore, have you seen or noticed anything?

Tangier Island has its own unique accent and has lost 2/3 of its land since 1850.

It's not rising, like, feet a year. It's not super noticeable unless you need to keep track of it for land use. On top of that beaches import sand to combat natural erosion so tourist beaches aren't going anywhere.
