The water will come

An immersive and timely exploration of the devastating effects of global warming, this book serves as a powerful reminder that we cannot ignore climate change indefinitely. It raises the question of whether Atlantis was merely a myth or an early warning of the impending age of flooding. As scientists and civilians witness rising sea levels and increasingly high tides, our vibrant cities and traditional coastal villages face imminent threats. Each crack in the Arctic and Antarctic ice sheets, along with rising global temperatures, brings us closer to disaster. By the end of the century, millions will be forced to retreat from inundated coastlines, transforming landscapes and erasing coastal regions. While ambitious engineering projects may provide temporary relief, no permanent solution exists to shield us from the inevitable drowning of our world. The book offers a definitive account of the impending water crisis, detailing why and how it will unfold and its profound implications. Through firsthand journalism and scientific evidence, the author travels across twelve countries, vividly depicting the reality of a world already on the brink of becoming a water world.
