If you're interested in how coastal cities are thinking about they should plan ahead for rising seas, Boston will be a city to watch.  More parkland?  Changing the zoning to require buildings to plan for flooding?  Moving people out of vulnerable neighborhoods?  It is complicated and the problem has many known and unknown variables.
