Beaches around the world are threatened to disappear due to sand leachate. In this way, write Financial Times (FT) publications.
According to the authors of the publication, the sand has been washed due to coastal erosion, and therefore it is difficult to prevent this process. In particular, in the city of Rodant in Northern Carolina in the United States since 2020, 11 houses collapsed into the ocean due to erosion of the coast. The restoration of the coast will require $ 40 million, but the city has no such money. In addition, Barcelona beaches in Spain lost 30 thousand cubic meters of sand per year. In this regard, some beaches can completely disappear.
From Miami to Barcelona and the Australian gold coast, the government is trying to understand how to save coastal roads from erosion in the coming years. Part of the erosion occurs for natural reasons, speaking documents.
The authors emphasized that the situation became worse by storms, strong tides, as well as the increase in sea levels due to the global warming of man, which led to the melting of the glacier.
It should be noted that the sand is imported to restore the coast. He served as a protection against floods. But the price of sand is increasing, and the supply in the market decreases due to increased demand in construction and other industries.
