I have to wonder how many people named Egan are in the world. More than just you, probably.

Usually it's a last name, though. It's somewhat possible that nobody else would qualify for the power, and if they do I ain't telling them. :V

New hypothetical: The oceans are rising for no apparent reason. By 2050, only some mountains will be above water even partially. What you do? What world do?

Make reason apparent through science.

Solve reason.

If this fails, build an ark.

World: Rebuild major cities and infrastructure from pressure-resistant, sealed materials. Develop genemodding tech to adapt the next generations of children to life under the sea. Continue business as usual.

Myself: buy/lease land in the mountains, capitalize on tourism to the mythical Dry Land.

All I could do is save for a large boat, learn to fish, and make some sort of boat greenhouse thing for some plants. The only thing I could see helping more than just me is a lot of research being thrown into underwater habitats, and even then there'd NEVER be enough for all 7 billion for us to survive.

Live on lots of floaty platforms, harvest tidal energy, get destroyed by superstorms, whales inherit the earth.

I do wonder where all this water is coming from if it's appearing fast enough to put most of the earth underwater by 2050. No airpressure 4 u
