SLR causes fresh water shortage. In the near future, the most common water would be 100% seawater, and by the percentage of mixed pure water the price of water will be decided. 100% pure water will be not common to drink anymore.
We will remember that once there was sand, and once we had a beautiful beach at Long Beach. In 2050, it changes its name to Long Gone Beach since the sand is all gone underwater.
Because of SLR, in 2050 many lands might sink into water or have water shortage problems. The flags are designed to show that SLR is not only a specific local problem, but more a global problem.
