    "Kicking the can down the road" is only going to cause the human and monetary cost to increase exponentially. And of course, it's the poorest who will stand to lose the most in just about any scenario.

Coastal communities are going to suffer, as a given, but the places that will have to absorb these folks are generally unprepared to accommodate them.
