Losing islands?
It might sound weird but it probably will come true in a longer period of time because of global warming affecting Antarctica. Because Antarctica would lose all it's ice and snow, then the waves would grow in size and the ocean would rise because the water that use to be ice washed up into the water. So since islands are surrounded by only water , the water would rise and wash up on the shores and create a flood.
The next day after your post, the Washington Post had a news article about the impact of global warming and rising seas on islands.
