Kind of like how they routinely would talk about islands going underwater. I remember in the mid 2000s believing that Maldives would likely go under water, something that the then leader of the country also believed… But it just has not happened, and a lot of the talk about the rate at which it is happening ends up encouraging extreme protest positions that do things which are not warranted, IMO.
