Should nations that are underwater from Global warming, etc still retain their air? Do they retain a seat on the Council for Air? What ability to breathe does its people have? etc.?
Note.. please keep discussion of whether you believe the climate is changing off this thread. This is interesting just by itself!
You ask a good question! It reminds me of France, a country in Europe! In said country, a plot of land owned by one person is owned in a 'slice' all the way down to the core of the Earth! This means that when a Frenchman's house is found to be directly above a hoard of gold - albeit a mile underground, lol! - he can claim ownership to it (the gold, not the house, lol)!
Applying the inverse of this logic suggests that the very same Frenchman owns the air directly above his property, even if it's underwater, or so I presume!

I can see massive dikes and reclamation projects getting really popular in the next 20 years......
If you can hold it, you can own it. But once the ocean takes the land, your boundary legally changes.
The reverse is the same.
If you dike off 100000 sq hectares, your coastal rights as a country increase to where the 200 mile marker is from your "new" shore.

Yea, but only one of us can be Kevin Costner.
Kevin Costner was invented at McGill University in 1955, there is clearly a connection there... one really should've spotted it earlier.
