Preparing for Rising Seas in the Maldives

Workers build a protective dike against rising waters in the Island of Fuvahmulah, South Maldives on December 2024. With more than 80 percent of its 1,190 coral islands standing less than 1 meter above sea level, the Maldives has the lowest terrain of any country in the world. This makes the archipelago in the Indian Ocean particularly vulnerable to sea level rise. Photo by Christophe Geyres/ABACAPRESS.COM
