Sea level rise in the Lone Star state. Hang on to your Shiner Bocks people. Galveston, though well prepared and experienced with hurricanes, will mostly be underwater in a 10 foot sea level rise scenario. Granted, subsidence and storm surge aren’t even used in these maps, so things could look a bit worse, especially with monster category 5 storms spinning toward the petrochemical capital of the world, Harris County Texas. Hopefully by that time our reliance upon fossil fuel infrastructure will have waned to the point of irrelevance.
