If you look at this, it sounds like the PTB are aware of some disaster heading our way, but don’t seem to be doing anything about it. We aren’t hearing much of anything through the MSM, either.
It seems that whatever “it” might be, it is an event global in scale, somewhat predictable, but unpreventable.
Since we do not see much in the way of preparations, other than disaster drills in various cities, we know that either the location of the event cannot be predicted, or will be so large, it will effect everyone. Based on so many other world leaders being aware of this, we have to assume it is global in nature.
Now, there are very few events that have global implications.

Also, there is some reason to keep it secret, and that must be because there is nothing that can be done to prevent the loss of lives.

While I applaude your exercise in logic, I can't subscribe to your vision of a benevolent government. All you have to do is look over original documentation and MSM headlines over the past 8 years to know that we-aren't-in-Kansas-any-more. Can you honestly loook at a picture of Bush, Cheney, et. al. and tell me you trust these people??
If there's a disaster coming, other than the intentional economic meltdown, rest assured TPTB are behind it. My money is on 9/11 redux -- biological, chemical or nuclear.

Maybe government isn't 100% evil. Perhaps there are extenuating circumstances we don't know about.
My theory doesn't mean that the PTB are benevolent and kind, but perhaps the issue is that we're going to see a mass migration of individuals from the coastlines to inland. And better than having them descend on the rest of us, maybe they shuttle them to a FEMA camp, maybe they deploy the military to keep crime down, maybe they have decided to move the capitol to Colorado.
Surely, it's better than doing nothing. Hurricane Katrina showed us how many people will behave in an natural disaster. It wasn't pretty.

Should we just accept that it's all due to the agenda of the ruling elite and not look at other possible motives?
There’s something going on, we all know it. Most people assume it’s a New World Order type of conspiracy, but what if it was something else? What if what the government was doing was actually trying to look out for our best interests, but they were screwing it up as bureaucracies are known to do?

If the "disaster" were coastal flooding of epic proportions, wouldn't they build camps toward the center of the continent?

Its rare to see such an enlightened comment amongst all the tin foil dirvel on ATS. That's all it is, the effect that a bureaucracy saddled with organizational complexity and disproportionate amounts of power and wealth has on society at large. Like Roosevelt said, we have nothing to fear but fear itself. We have challenges and significant obstacles ahead, but its nothing to fear. Its our world at work.

When the sea level rises, the coastal areas are flooded. A three-foot rise would be devastation on a scale hardly believable.
Should this happen, the US and every other landmass would experience flooding where ¾ of the population resides – along the coastlines.
