Climate Change: The tourist destinations that could disappear | ecogreenlove→ http://ecogreenlove.com/?p=13967Sea level rise will affect the entire global population in one way or another. Whether it’s the livelihoods of communities in low-lying floodplains, the food procurement process, or global transport networks, sea-level rise will continue to threaten millions of people worldwide.Specifically, the world of tourism is at risk of rising sea levels.
