In any case, whether the house is at sea level or part way up a cliff is a far more important topic of debate than climate change and what to do about it.
I agree.

What can be done?

My view is nothing at all, but I am happy to suggest some things.
Change humans so they wont be greedy.
Build cars for transport rather than being used as toys.
Ban all forms of "petrol" racing.
Cease production of luxury items so as to save the energy.
Reduce air travel for holidays.
Remove refrigerators from office buildings.
Dont hold sporting events that cause thousands to travel there and back.
Paint everything white.
But most of all tax carbon and build multiple nuclear power plants.
