It isn’t a matter of if but when all the ice melts. This could happen in as little as 1000 years, or it may take more than 10,000 years for all the ice to melt. When all the ice melts, most of Florida would be water covered along with the Eastern seaboard including Boston, New York City and Washington DC. On the West Coast LA and SanFrancisco would be gone along with Seattle and Vancouver. It will signal the ending of the last ice age we were in. We may not get that ice back for another 60,000 years. People will need to move and adapt just as wildlife always has.
