The United Nations Organization warned that rising sea levels may put the human rights of millions of people worldwide at risk.
According to UN data, approximately 770 million people, roughly one in ten in the world, live less than five meters above the high tide line, making them particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change.
Some projections indicate that up to 1.2 billion people worldwide could be displaced by 2030 due to rising sea levels and their impacts on coastal areas.
