The cost of rising sea
When ocean levels go up and the land along the coast sinks at the same time, the effective rise in sea level is much bigger. For a business or home near the shore, that means a higher flood risk than you might expect. Watch local land movement and sea trends, and keep them in mind for future planning.
Key Statutory Highlights
- In some coastal areas, the land is sinking.
- At the same time, ocean levels are rising.
- Where both happen, the effective increase in relative sea level is considerably greater.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:Stay informed about sinking land and rising seas in your area so you can plan ahead for your property or business.
