I suppose it's no great surprise but it certainly is very worrying
and is potentially far more important than all the political
shenanigans that fill the news media. I wonder if there's a
backroom team somewhere in Whitehall trying to devise a plan for an
orderly abandonment of Central London before the end of the
century. It might eventually come to that. There's only so much
water that can be kept out. I won't be around to see the potential
problem becoming reality but my grandchildren might well be.

Probably a good time to be living where the land is rising after the
last ice age. Anyone for Norway?

Out on Scilly the land's sinking. It's very interesting, from an
archaeological point of view, looking through the shallow clear
waters to see all the old remains, including stone walls and
buildings, now around or just below the low tide mark. Such as here

The environment always looks so permanent, except it isn't:-)
