If I select the Netherlands, it says 100% of the population will be living below sea level in 2100, but it says the same thing for the present, which is not quite accurate, the actual statistic is 70% [1]. Even if it does rise to 100%, it doesn't necessarily mean that 100% of the Netherlands will become uninhabitable. All of that is not to say that the climate situation isn't very dire, of course.
Pretty interesting stuff. Although in New Zealand we had our first cyclone properly hit land this year and it absolutely obliterated whole communities and disrupted our biggest agricultural region - so I'm not sure if we'll be as unaffected in 80 years as this makes out.
It would be interesting to see a map of the areas that will become more habitable (or, at least, less inhabitable) than they are now, due to the climate change: most of Canada, Syberia, even Antarctica...
Oof, it looks like India is in some extremely deep trouble going forward. Places like Delhi are packed with people, few of them able to afford to buy and run the AC they'd need to survive. I'm not even sure if the power grid could support that if they could afford it.

P.S. I'm based in Latvia, a country up North in the EU. Very quiet (weather wise).
This summer for the first time in history we've had a... hurricane. With tornadoes turning cars upside down and even snow (in the middle of August).
