And so it begins... Book recommendation:
The Water Knife by Paolo Bacigalupi. Extrapolates this very scenario in a frighteningly convincing way, IMO. Also, his Ship Breaker trilogy, which I've read two thirds of, and which seems to be set in the same or a very closely related universe. (It's described as "young adult", but didn't feel all that childish to me.) [EDIT: Tpyo] -- Christian R.

Years of catastrophic hurricanes have so punished and depleted the region that the government has drawn a new boundary ninety miles north of the coastline. Life below the Line offers no services, no electricity, and no resources, and those who stay behind live by their own rules—including Cohen, whose wife and unborn child were killed during an evacuation attempt. He buried them on family land and never left. "Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts" – Richard Feynman |
