Good point, Brian. I'd be interested to know if anyone's done any
analysis of the impact of a reasonable rise in sea level on Christchurch
in particular. I used Google Earth a while back to find out that here in
Bryndwr I'm about 10 metres above current sea level, which is somewhat
comforting :-) But then, how much is the sea level predicted to rise
over the next, say, decade ?
