50-year projection shows Maine coastal towns under threat from climate change-induced sea-level rise and coastal flooding.
Map by Climate Central predicts which Maine towns could be underwater in 50 years due to climate change's impact on rising sea levels and coastal flooding. As Maine experiences warmer winters with less snow and rainstorms, coastal towns, previously unaffected by flooding, are now facing inundation. Climate Central's modeling helps visualize potential coastal changes and the need for adaptation strategies.
