The Rising Sea - Shearwater
Orrin H. Pilkey
On Shismaref Island in Alaska, homes are being washed into the sea. In the South Pacific, small island nations face annihilation by encroaching waters. For these communities, sea level rise isn't a distant, abstract fear: it's happening now and it's threatening their way of life. This title warns that many other coastal areas may be close behind.
