I know that the rise in sea level will be about 7 meters or 21 feet. I also know that this might displace about 20% of the world population and take about 1000 years, but how much land in square miles will be lost due to the risen sea level?

I was thinking a higher amount of Positive/ Negative Ions. I have heard of people being struck a bunch, like 7+ at least. I am sure people have been struck more. Maybe after it gets you once it is more likely to strike again?
