[QUOTE="FrumiousBandersnatch, post: 75009674, member: 241055"] I don't know what he based it on - it depends on the amount of ice melt, which depends on temperature and timescale. If the whole antarctic ice cap melted, it could be 10 times his prediction - in the long term (~1,000 years). In the short term, i.e. this century, 3 feet or more is quite feasible, and that would cause serious flooding problems, if not abandonment, for many of the world's major coastal cities, some of which are already on a knife-edge, and major population migrations away from low-lying coastal areas and flood plains.
