Flood Maps
Some guy set-up a Google Map showing which areas of the world would flood if sea levels rose 1 to 14 meters. It's quite interesting to look over.
Some things I noticed:
Seattle becomes an island at +9 meters
Around +12 meters, Yuba City becomes a coastal city
Nearly everything south of Baton Rogue is underwater at +11 meters
Parts of Richmond flood at just +1 meter
At +14 meters the Netherlands is left with three incongruous parts and two large islands
Uppsala starts to flood at +8 meters
Shanghai becomes an island at +4 meters
Bangladesh is screwed
