Mapping Future Of Coastal Regions In Human-Dominated World
What We Can't Sea
As rising sea levels continue to threaten coastal regions around the world, scientists are working to map the future of these areas in a human-dominated world. Listen now to learn more.
Human activity in coastal regions has wreaked havoc on many vulnerable ecosystems. From oil spills in the Gulf of Mexico to the construction of sprawling beach resorts along sunny Mediterranean shorelines, humanity’s impact on the coastlines of the world has been extensive. Around three-quarters of humans live within 50km of a coastline and as such, billions of people rely on the ecosystem services that they provide. Despite the importance of these habitats, we have a limited understanding of how much humanity affects coastal regions.
