Islands of the Pacific are likely to be some of the earlier causalities of global warming and sea level rise?

true.

sea level rise expected continue centuries. in 2007, intergovernmental panel on climate change (ipcc) projected during 21st century, sea level rise 18 59 cm (7.1 23 in), these numbers not include "uncertainties in climate-carbon cycle feedbacks nor include full effects of changes in ice sheet flow". more recent projections assessed national research council (2010) suggest possible sea level rise on 21st century of between 56 , 200 cm (22 , 79 in).

future sea level rise lead potentially catastrophic difficulties shore-based communities in next centuries: example, many major cities such london, new orleans, , new york need storm-surge defenses, , need more if sea level rose, though face issues such subsidence. sea level rise displace many shore-based populations: example estimated sea level rise of 200 mm create 740,000 homeless people in nigeria. maldives, tuvalu, , other low-lying countries among areas @ highest level of risk. un's environmental panel has warned that, @ current rates, sea level high enough make maldives uninhabitable 2100.

despite long distance industrialized nations.
