BONN, Germany (AP) — From Bangkok to Miami, cities and coastal areas across the globe are already building or planning defenses to protect millions of people and key infrastructure from more powerful storm surges and other effects of global warming.

Some are planning cities that will simply adapt to more water.

But climate-proofing a city or coastline is expensive,...blah...blah...blah...

Coastlines and river valleys tend to be unstable geologically, yet civilizations have preferred those areas to build their cities, usually on top of the structures of the previous civilization. Even without "global warming", these areas tend to settle, in other works, sink. Yet, knowing this, there seems to be a sudden concern over a phenomenon that has been observed for thousands of years.
