A NASA Map Reveals Coastal Cities Home to 40 Million That Are Sinking Into the Ocean

the Edgar Cayce Map is slowly coming into focus-

my neck of the woods will be a tiny island.

Pumping out the ground water and causing subsidence is pretty common in coastal areas -- a lot more common than rising sea levels.

The sea level can rise for other reasons, though. Look a the Isles of Scilly for an example.

My understanding is that the Isles of Scilly are on the southern part of the plate that England and Scotland are on. During the previous glaciation, a mile or two of ice on Scotland pushed that end of the plate up. With the warming in this warm period, the glaciers melted and so the amount of weight went down, allowing the north end of the plate to rebound slowly, and it is still rebounding. It is kind of like a teeter totter -- as the north end rises, the south end goes down and so the Isles of Scilly are slowly going into the ocean. I think that what was once a large island is now about four smaller islands. Not from sea level rise, but from the land sinking.
