Thus, the demand for self - storage, student and senior housing as well as medical offices, which has been on
the rise during the past several years, is expected to continue to increase long - term, not only in 2018.

That estimate was based in part on the fact that sea level is now
rising 3.2 mm / yr (3.2 m / millennium)[57], an order of magnitude faster than the rate
during the prior
several thousand
years, with rapid change of ice sheet mass balance over the
past few decades [23] and Greenland and Antarctica now losing mass at accelerating rates [23]--[24].

Sea level is now
rising 3.1 mm per
year or 3.1 m per millennium [72], an order of magnitude faster than the rate
during the
past several thousand
years, and Greenland and Antarctica are losing mass at accelerating rates [73,74].
One scientist, paleoclimatologist William Ruddiman, even argued that the
rise of human agriculture had already produced enough greenhouse gases to counteract the gradual cooling that should have come
during the
past several thousand
years; every previous cycle had begun a steady cooling soon after its peak, rather than leveling off as ours had done.
In contrast, global temperature in at least the
past two decades is probably outside the Holocene range (7), as evidenced by the fact that the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are both losing mass rapidly (8, 9) and sea level has been
rising at a rate [3 m / millennium, (10); updates available at http://sealevel.colorado.edu/] well above the average rate
during the
past several thousand
years.
During the
past several years the number of super commuters in both the United States and abroad has
risen exponentially.
