The sea level is rising around the world at the fastest rate since at least the founding of ancient Rome.  Scientist have attributed this rapid sea rise to the increasing in Greenhouse gases from fossil fuels.  Many areas like Miami beach and Norfolk have been affected by the floods from higher sea level.  The floods have caused streets to be blocked and for freshwater to be contaminated.  These events however are seen as small scale to what will come.  The study also found if emissions continue at the current rate the ocean could rise up to three to four feet by 2100.  This startling statistic would cause the need to abandon many coast cities. Sea level rise is also causing flooding on the east coast that would normally not happen in fact as much as three-quarters of the flooding would not naturally happen.  Although sea level rise will does not largely contribute to power of storms like hurricane Katrina or Sandy, it does substantially increases the number of floods an area can have such as Annapolis.

Unfortunately to stop the rapid sea level rise the plans in Paris are not nearly strict enough to make a major change to stop the rising sea levels.
