#3 The sea level in Boston increased approximately 1/2 inch during the past century. The claim that another city on the same ocean achieving an 8" rise in sea level is world-class codswallop.

#4 Theyโ€™ve been draining the underlying aquifers in Florida,
I understand, leading to sinkholes among other problems. Also, Rajโ€™s logic is devastating,

#5 Raj, it's entirely possible that the sea level only rose 1/2 inch in Boston, while it rose 8 inches in Florida. I mean - look at a map. Florida is below Boston. Everyone knows that water flows downhill. Q.E.D.

#11 That whole geology of southern Florida is like swiss cheese near the ocean.

Sand covering Limestone (from, you know, dead sea creatures) and muck.

#13 There was one earthquake in Florida in 2020.

On June 11,2021 after the US Navy tested the survivability of an aircraft carrier by detonation of large bomb, and creating a 3.9 magnitude earthquake, Florida has registered four earthquakes in 12 days.

In the interim a building collapsed in the 12 day earthquake zone....

Coincidence ?



The last earthquake in this zone was this morning,

just saying

#15 Sea level is also higher where the earth's density is less. Gravity, doncha know. Mass has more mass from solid rock; Florida is less dense, geologically. But I like the settlement angle, too.

#17 Well we all know the Jooos were responsible for Pangaea breaking up. So they can sell more waterfront property at inflated prices!

Yep Florida is sinking

#22 we all know the Jooos were responsible for Pangaea breaking up.

Tricksy as hobbits, they are. And with a profound knowledge of plate tectonics.
