Also some places are talking about it. Hawaii for example.

"‘We need to retreat’: North Shore homeowners violating state rules to save properties, DLNR says posted:

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - The state is now keeping track of homeowners trying to stop their properties from falling into the ocean along Oahu’s North Shore.

After a drone survey conducted earlier in September, the Department of Land and Natural Resources found that out of 20 homes along Ke Nui Drive, none of the owners are fully complying with the permits to mitigate erosion.

The state said many of the desperate attempts to keep waves from eating away at the crumbling shoreline are violating state rules.

This includes unauthorized placement of rocks and sandbags, and blocking beach access.

Officials said not only are efforts failing to keep homes safe, debris from the makeshift break walls is falling into the ocean and harming marine life.

“If we remove these structures, then we will have cesspools or houses falling into the ocean. We fix one environmental disaster; we create a new one,” said Michael Cain, administrator at the DLNR Office of Conservation and Coastal Lands.

“We need to retreat. We don’t know how to do it. We look for role models in other coastal communities, everyone is facing the same situation. No one has come up with a good plan on how to manage this.”

They've been saying this for almost a decade now, so basically no one gives a poo poo about these houses or the people who own them anymore. loving move brah. There's also plans to move the kamehameha highway way further inland instead of right on the coast because it keeps falling into the ocean.

It's worth noting that the Juan de fuca plate subsiding is raising that part of the north American plate to cancel out it's subsidence

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascadia_subduction_zone

quote:

It postulated that several towns and cities on the west coast of Vancouver Island, such as Tofino and Ucluelet, are at risk for a sudden, earthquake initiated, 1–2 m subsidence.[22]

When that earthquake goes the region is going to get a little bit closer to sea level

Though maybe they took that into account the ring of fire probably has that poo poo going on everywhere

Each time Arf has posted in the thread there have been approximately 200 posts discussing Arf. I think everyone should convert their posting to just troll this thread because that's an amazing success rate with almost zero effort.

Compare the coverage to something like the Russian invasion of Ukraine and I think you'll understand people's expectations better. I think a lot of people are accustomed to the idea that anything that doesn't receive 24/7 news coverage isn't a big deal.

You got me wondering how it compares to a war. I think Pakistan has been crippled worse than if they'd lost a major (non nuclear) war. It really should be bigger news.
