How much did sea level rise cost Miami Dade county in 2000->2024?

@nsokolsky I was unable to find an earlier figure. It seems like this is the first study of its kind and one would need to model this for earlier years.

@pmn IMO this question is currently impossible to bet on because there isn't a clear explanation of how it would be resolved
