A very stupid question.
I don't want to look at the plausibility and the physical and quantitative correctness at all right now. But simply ask about the consequences.
Which is also complete bunk because Berlin is between 34 and 115 meters [111-377'] above sea level, but I'm not gonna question it and just take it as is. Let's pretend without any criticism that this is the case.
And let us also put aside the question of whether this is even our business, whether there will be even a single German living in Cologne by then, and whether physics have been replaced with Quran and it's Allah's responsibility to save his people with divine power (although I do care about the question why Allah and the salvation of believers has not been taken into account in the climate models at all, and why there is no fuss whatsoever around it being severe blasphemy to assume that man could, with his actions, make the sea level rise and flood mosques and believers against the will of Allah.).
Let's think back to the Ahr valley flooding catastrophe.
There, too, the question was floating in the room why they weren't prepared for it, or why they even built and settled in a flood plain.
So why do they not, effective immediately, cancel all construction activity in Hamburg, Cologne, Berlin, create relocation plans for the population towards the southern (=more elevated) parts of the country, and recalculate the acceptance capacity of refugees based on the expected significantly lower area of Germany?
Because both don't fit together. You cannot simultaneously grandstand "We've got room!" and get ever more people into the country, without any limit, and proclaim that Germany's borders will shrink, the country is going to become massively smaller.
In principle, the government - we've allegedly passed the point of no return to save the climate, the catastrophe cannot be stopped - would need to immediately make plans to evacuate the northern states - Mecklenburg-Hither Pomerania, Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg, Bremen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Lower Saxony, Berlin, Brandenburg - and build up corresponding accommodation capacities in the southern states. And use that as a basis to calculate how much of a refugee capacity - divided into standing rooms and seats - we still have.
I would like to discuss the question why they simultaneously

Yes ... so which is it now?
And if you are so certain that there's going to be a catastrophe: Why are no preparations being made for it? Why didn't they order a fatwa to check whether this is even possible that man, the non-believer, can cause such things, and what is to be done? And how's that supposed to go? Women and believers first?
A really stupid question regarding climate and migration
A very stupid question.

By the way, this is the coastline if both polar ice caps melt. Cologne will be a seaport then.

- when it comes to migration, claim "We've got room"
- when it comes to climate, claim "We're all going to die drowning".
