  • My own solution to this issue: enlarge Palestine by dredging the Med to create some new land. I haven't done the sums yet, but this would also reduce sea levels globally, saving the Maldives etc.

  • We start with the total surface area of the sea, which is 139.5 million square miles. To get sea levels to drop by 12 inches, we do a sum to calculate how many cubic metres of stuff needs to be removed from the sea bed.
