People who live in Cape Carmel major reasons for their worry is that there are many homes built at, or nearly at, sea level along the coast of Cape Carmel. The total value of these homes is more than 100 million dollars.
Ice melting increases the sea level. Global sea level is measured relative to the sea level in the year 1870. If the sea level in 1870 is represented by 0 inches, then Cape Carmel sea level has risen from 1 6.8 inches to 8.4 inches in the years from 1992 to 2012. If the sea level rises to 24 inches, it will have devastating effects on the homes along the coast of Cape Carmel.
