Essential reading for all locals.
This vitally important research tells us that unless we improve our levees and seawalls in the near future. Hauraki Plains farms, Thames CBD and our coastal settlements, will without any doubt, be increasingly threatened by the now accelerating rate of sea level rise combined with our locally subsiding lands. Will we be the poster child of best defences or that of a miserly and cowardly retreat from the sea. I suspect other low lying regions of NZ will watch us with enormous interest.
Although I have been following the climate change science for decades; being a newcomer here, I was totally ignorant regarding the subsidence risks of our plains.
