Atafona Coastal Erosion Aftermath - Brazil
This photo taken on October 4, 2025 shows a beach eroded by ocean waves in Atafona, Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil. In recent years, Atafona, a coastal town in northern Rio de Janeiro state, has been gradually swallowed by the sea due to severe coastal erosion, with houses collapsing and residents forced to relocate. As Brazil prepares to host the COP30 scheduled for this November in Belem, the situation in Atafona stands as a vivid reminder of the profound impact of climate change and rising sea levels on coastal communities worldwide.
