local.description | The adverse impact of rising seal levels extend beyond the world’s small island states and coastal communities―they can sink fertile river deltas like the Mississippi, Mekong and Nile, the world’s breadbaskets. Although small island states are the most vulnerable to rising sea levels, the scope of those impacted is much wider, the president of the UN General Assembly warned.
