When will we believe the predictions and stop building so close to the bay? Do we want to be another New Orleans?
Let's smarten up and take the warnings to heart. In the last 50 years I have seen the destruction of parts of many cities due to water, and building at sea level.

Wow, Papendick is either deeply misinformed, or straight up lying about the how much thermal expansion El Nino can cause, This summer, on Aug 13, we had record water temps in Monterey of 69F. Was there 10 inches of thermal expansion? Was there any noticeable thermal expansion? No. Will a strong El Nino bring water warmer than we had this summer? No.
How much thermal expansion is there right now at the equator where El Nino is at its maximum? NASA estimates 1".

2-12 inches is a margin of 6x, Does that make any sense. Is that the science we're relying on?
I believe in climate change but you won't win people over with extreme exagerations.

Sea rise is real - those photos are just a harbinger.
And all that cap that's submerged - industrial waste, in the sumps, etc..
Who's going to clean it?

Photos of SSF Landfill last month under water. Is it possible the land is shifting/sinking and water rising at the same time?
