I read a little, I haven't found any issues except USA gets it's east coast wiped with water. Maybe that's why they building so many data centers there, to change climate so water can refresh their data. That will be hilarious to watch to be honest I can live with that.

It affects all coastlines everywhere in the world. Most countries have major cities on the coast that will be forced to relocate. Massive damages and refugees.

Rising oceans isn't itself an extinction event, but poverty in capitalist countries means a lot of people are going to die. A lot.

with less cold water coming down the US east coast, temperatures will rise. With more energy (heat) in that system, hurricanes will be more severe and frequent.
