C'mon Rod, please. This makes you look desperate. This is a river delta island made of sediment deposits. They are dynamic and constantly changing. These deltas are heavily studied due to large populations and oil deposits. Sea level rise is not an issue in large deltas. They have been proven to be able to keep up with any sea level rise. Flooding disasters are seasonally the result of excessive run-off, and occasionally due to unfortunate storm surges that result in breaks through natural barriers, but this has nothing to do with sea level rise.

THE SEA LEVEL HAS RISEN ONLY 4MM IN THE LAST 100 YEARS. A NATURAL RATE. SEA LEVEL DID NOT CHANGE THIS ISLAND. NADA. ZILCH. ZERO.
