It is not possible to say with any certainty what will happen to Florida in the future. Here is information on rising sea levels: The Fourth Report of the IPCC (The United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), Climate Change 2007, said:

  • Losses from the land-based ice-sheets of Greenland and Antarctica have very likely (>90%) contributed to sea level rise between 1993 and 2003.
  • Ocean warming causes seawater to expand, which contributes to sea level rising.
  • Sea level rose at an average rate of about 1.8 mm/year during the years 1961-2003. The rise in sea level during 1993-2003 was at an average rate of 3.1 mm/year. It is not clear whether this is a long-term trend or just variability.

It is saying that sea levels are rising, but it doesn't know if the recent 3 mm a year will continue or not. If it stays at that rate that means 3 cm in ten years, and 30 cm in 100 years. (Thirty cm is about one foot.) One foot of sea level rise would certainly flood some low lying coastal areas of Florida.

What are the lyrics to intoo deep bye sum 41?

The faster were falling, Were stopping and stalling. Were running in circles again Just as things were looking up You said it wasnt good enough. But still were trying one more time. Maybe were just trying to hard. When really its closer than it is too far Cause Im in too deep, and Im trying to keep, Up above in my head, instead of going under. Cause Im in too deep, and Im trying to keep, Up above in my head, instead of going under. Instead of going under. Seems like each time Im with you I loose my mind, Because Im bending over backwards to relate. Its one thing to complain But when youre driving me insane Well then I think its time that we took a break. Maybe were just trying to hard. When really its closer than it is too far Cause Im in too deep, and Im trying to keep, Up above in my head, instead of going under. Cause Im in too deep, and Im trying to keep, Up above in my head, instead of going under. Instead of going under. Instead of going under. I cant sit back and wonder why. It took so long for this to die. And I hate it when you fake it. You cant hide it you might as well embrace it. So believe me its not easy. It seems that somethings telling me, Cause Im in too deep, and Im trying to keep, Up above in my head, instead of going under. Cause Im in too deep, and Im trying to keep, Up above in my head, instead of going under. Instead of going under. Instead of going under. Instead of going under again. Instead of going under. Instead of going under again. Instead of going under again.

Were there opponents to the building of Walt Disney World Florida?

In terms of competition, Walt Disney had that in mind when planning out his "Florida Project". In fact, he acquired the land under a different name just to throw off other entertainment companies, and this worked for quite some time. However, after Disney World's opening in 1971, that very competition inevitably flooded in to become the Floridian tourist traps we all know today.
