BRIAN & ANGELA

COASTAL EROSION ~ EXPLOSION !

 

 

EVERYONE likes a sea-view from their house

Everyone likes to live near the Coast

Or if you\'re rich ~ A Holiday Home 

Where on the beach we can roast !

 

We love the sound of the Seagulls

Collect shells and walk on the sand 

But sand\'s not a good foundation 

House slip into Sea was not planned !

 

Coast to land ratio\'s important 

Some Countries have no Coast at all !

But if your house is too close to edge

One day into Sea ~ You will FALL !

 

My photo show the way it will go

Brick by brick ~ room by room ~ floor by floor

It\'s not surprising ~ Sea level is rising

Climate change more severe than before !

 

It\'s such a shame ~ but who can we blame ?

The blame lies with you and with me

No heed the warning ~ about Global Warning

So we\'ve all ended up ~ IN THE SEA !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ love BRIAN

 

Due to sea level rise and climate change it is estimated

that Britain will lose over 70 Coastal Dwellings per year

The UK has a high Coast to Land Area ratio (51.4) which

is similar to other Islands (New Zealand ~ Iceland ~ Fiji

Haiti etc) The USA is only 2.2 (20 states have no coast !)

Australia (3.4) but over 90% lie on the Coast ! Some

Countries have NO COAST ~ Austria ~ Switzerland etc !
