Floods Threaten Indonesia's Sinking City
JAKARTA, INDONESIA - NOVEMBER 24: Wasmu, a crab fisherman mends his net in the small shack where he lives surrounded by a permanent pool of standing water near the Sunda Kelapa port November 24, 2015 in Jakarta, Indonesia. Jakarta, Southeast Asia's largest city is sinking slowly into the sea, largely due to overconsumption of ground water. Experts say that if nothing is done, the city's northern coast will be inundated with 5-7 meters (15-21 ft.) of seawater by the year 2080. The city has begun shoring up its sea defences as increasing floods and severe storms due to rising temperatures and climate change threaten the mostly poor residents of Jakarta's northern coast with the loss of their homes.
