Here is a better explanation of why scientists now say that some coastal areas will be inundated by the sea thirty years sooner than originally projected. When thinking of sea level rise, I've heard Shanghai in my head for a few years. This article shows Shanghai to be the most populated city in the world that is going to be swamped early, as well as Mumbai.

PS I think it's going to happen much faster than even these projections.
