We will probably be underwater in 2030.

I think that I should become a captain in a supertanker...

Fortunately it will take more than 6 years for coastal cities to start flooding that much. By the end of the century it is forecasted to go up by less than 2 meter worst case. In 2000 years it could rise as much as 20 years if the temperatures rise 5ยฐC.

Additionally it is much easier to just move to higher ground.
