Before this site goes to subscription, I'll try to share what I can, resource wise to help some prepare and find safe zones.

here's a link to a flood map of the world, where you can add or subtract water level rises from +0 to +14m

this one is even better

Google Earth has a similar tool that can be downloaded, and then you can look at what the terrain will be like on the new coast. It's a little buggy, but zoomed in close it provides you with a scalable view up to an increase of 99 meters.

To download:

1). Open Google Earth.
2). Under Places (middle of the left pane of the screen), click the Add Content button.
3). Look for Rising Sea Level Animation. Currently it's the 6th item on the list.

Shelf Life of Seeds

Average number of years vegetable seeds will remain viable if properly stored.

STORE SEEDS PROPERLY
Keeping seeds dry during storage is most important. Moisture causes seeds to rot. See to it that moisture from the air or any other sources does not get into the seeds. A simple, inexpensive but efficient storage container can be made out of a canning glass jar with an airtight lid. Get a clean jar. Make sure it is dry. As a precaution against moisture, put a layer of powdered charcoal (dessicant) on the bottom of the jar. One-half inch thickness is sufficient. If silica gel or calcium chloride is available, these should be substituted for the charcoal. Place the seeds in an envelope so they do not get in contact with the charcoal; place in a jar and cover tightly. Low temperature prolongs the life of the seeds. With this method of storage, seeds can be kept without significant germination loss.
