Sea Level Rise

Season 4 Episode 7 | 26m 46sVideo has Closed Captions

We look at the causes and effects of sea level rise, and potential solutions to adapt.

Sea level has been rising since the end of the last Ice Age, when continental ice sheets began to melt. In island nations and low-lying coastal areas sea level rise is contributing, among other things, to high tide flooding, and saltwater encroaching into farmland and freshwater aquifers. We’ll talk about what the future could bring, and ideas of how communities could adapt to sea level rise.
