Synopsis

While rising seas are now inevitable, we are far from helpless. By making hard choices - including uprooting communities, changing where and how we build, and developing a coordinated response - we can save property, and ultimately lives. With unassailable research and practical insights, 'The Rising Sea' is a critical first step in understanding the threat and keeping our heads above water.
