Rising Seas and Tunisia Coasts
The United Nations has warned of an accelerating rise in sea levels due to climate change and the melting of glaciers, with a global increase of 4.7 millimeters per year between 2014 and 2023, and a record high of 5.9 millimeters in 2024. This is expected to lead to a rise of about half a meter in sea levels during the current century, threatening coastal areas, including the Tunisian coast, with flooding, shoreline erosion, and groundwater salinization. The UN has called for limiting global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius and strengthening adaptation measures and funding to address the risks associated with this increase.
