    We’re basically committed to this much sea level rise at this point, even if we were to stop all emissions immediately (which is also impossible).

    I suspect most of those working to conserve the key deer agree that we should be aggressively reducing emissions but whether we do or don’t it still leaves the question of what to do with these animals. Some species have already gone extinct due to sea level rise, and more will soon unless something is done.

        One of the very first lines in the article says humans caused sea level rise, yes. This is an article about how we can help fix our problems, which will include adaptation. The idea that we won’t or shouldn’t take actions to adapt to climate change is frankly absurd at this point. So I don’t really understand what you’re trying to say here. Just give up? Let the world fall apart?
