READ THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA's GUIDE TO SEA LEVEL RISE : YES IT IS OVER A HUNDRED PAGES from CALIFORNIA OCEAN PROTECTION COUNCIL
OPC CAL GOV : SEA RISE GUIDE 2024

ELEPHANT SEALS OF THE PIEDRAS BLANCAS MARINE ANIMAL SANCTUARY - REBOUNDED FROM NEAR EXTINCTION
This Marine Animal Sanctuary that is about six miles of California Pacific Ocean coastline is the only one in the world that is free and always open.
The Elephant Seals were once, before the Endangered Species Act, thought to be down to about 30 animals as they were hunted for their blubber, their skin and coats not used for fashion. However, the population is now estimated to be up to 250,000!
