I remember ministry from the future book where they mention drilling down and pumping the seawater to prevent the freshwater intrusion to stop it melting

I wonder why it's not being discussed. As he said in the book, at the cost of practically all coastal cities going under, even small collections of real estate magnates would be invested enough to help privately fund at least some of it

It would be similar to trying to pump the sea out from underneath a dock. Where this is a problem the glacier is floating on the ocean.
