Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can describe how the UK's coastline is at risk from threats such as rising sea levels.

Show transcript
The UK's coastline is at risk due to sea level rise as a result of climate change. Rising sea levels are speeding up rates of erosion, leading to the east coast of England eroding quickly. When cliffs erode quickly they put homes and buildings on top of the cliffs at risk of falling into the sea. Some parts of the UK's coastline are eroding at a rate of more than 2 metres a year.
