Humans activities are considered by most of the scientific community to account for the vast majority of the observable phenomenon. I would think that it would be rational to curtail human usage of polluting fuels. People living in coastal areas would be displaced, but it would not happen rapidly enough to seem like a catastrophe. Global warming could however precipitate natural disasters in coastal regions, which would result in rapid displacement. The overall consensus is that can be stopped and is preventable.

That picture is crazy looking! I think there are ways to help slow down the effect but there is no way to stop it completely. The people living in the coast would have to move inland to avoid death and to survive. great job. Another great post Stepmel. That picture is crazy looking!
