Don’t do it. Quit fighting nature. Move inland. Quit living in cities! Okay, I know no one is going to do any of this.
San Francisco Bay is kind of unique; there are parts of it where geology and topography let you build levees and keep back the sea. One community, Alviso, is at ~13 feet below sea level due to land subsidence.
I don’t expect people anywhere to stop living in cities; they’ve got enormous advantages in terms specialization letting people be more productive and therefore society as a whole live better.
Yeah, but from an anthropologist view, cities (and specialization) have basically been the downfall of our species. I don’t know; I guess bolo’bolo mentioned some city-like places supported by farms. (and Çatalhöyük)
