    So he not only doesn’t believe in climate change but he doesn’t understand that a shape with smaller area will naturally have a smaller perimeter. There will be less oceanfront property, and less property over all. Dudes unqualified for 5th grade geometry, let alone the Presidency.

    (I’m excluding the possibility that rising waters would make the shoreline more fuzzy/fractal. AFAIK that isn’t the case.)

      I made basically this comment in another thread on this topic; the only way you’d get more beach front property is if a lot of low lying basins become bays that have more area than the shrinking perimeter.
