Rising Seas

It’s scary stuff. The seas are rising – and this isn’t a plot from a science-fiction film. Since 1900, Earth’s oceans have risen steadily each year. By 2100, the sea could climb by almost 10 metres – taller than the average two-storey house. Oh dear. Now this book gives you an eye-popping view of what Earth might look like as the seas begin to drown the world we know. Photos of present-day locations are shown beside images showing their projected future – shocking stuff that reveals how urgently we need to act to stop climate change.
