We live very close to a river and according to some of the projected climate chnage flooding maps a lot of the riverside areas and lower land areas near the mouth will just be gone. Dont think it's quite sunk in for people the potential impact climate chnage it going to have

I live about a metre above sea level. Fortunately the sea defences are solid but the sea level rise maps still aren't a comfort. I'd need a boat to visit my brother who lives 15 minutes away.
