Maximum alert: Spanish beaches at risk of disappearing due to rising sea levels
It is a fact that Climate change is affecting our planet and that we are at a point where even making big changes, there are consequences that can no longer be avoided. An example of this is that By the end of the century, at least one third of the world’s sandy beaches are expected to disappear.. Therefore, Which Spanish beaches are at risk? We discovered it in ‘Time to Time’.
In Spain there are no less than 8,000 kilometres of coastline, so adapting to rising sea levels is necessary. The melting of the Arctic zones and the warming of the oceans and seas are causing the water level to rise and By 2050, the Mediterranean coastline will be the most threatened. Barceloneta, El Perellonet, Muro and Mazarrón will be seriously affected.
But The Cantabrian and Atlantic Ocean areas are also in danger.“Whatever we do, if we don’t stop emitting greenhouse gases, if we don’t stop warming the planet… we’re going to have to see how our beaches are gradually shrinking,” explains Mario Picazo in ‘Tiempo al tiempo’.
