The rising sea level is affecting coastal areas all over the world. It increases flooding, worsens hurricane damage, and leaches saltwater into tidal areas. It increases migration, weakens military preparedness, and threatens historical sites. Local governments are spending billions to defend against these effects. Flooding will affect eight of the world's largest coastal cities. It will impact 40% of Americans who live in coastal counties. Floods have hit U.S. coastal towns three to nine times more often than they did 50 years ago. From 2005 to 2017, sea level rises cost eight coastal states $14.1 billion . Another study showed that the number of coastal flood days in 27 U.S. locations has increased dramatically.
