>>They won't even have to hurry<<

Two inches a years is 5 to 6 meters per century, which is the extreme worst-case-scenario that some scientists are starting to whisper about. I think it would set off quite a land rush to acquire property on higher ground. Governments would likely declare an emergency, seize property, pass all kinds of rules, etc. Low-lying places like Florida, New Orleans, London, the Netherlands, the Amazon and Bangladesh would be in "deep doo doo".
