Coming to a community near you: An update on Prince Edward Island鈥檚 coastal erosion
Essentially a large sandbar made up of primarily sand and sandstone, Prince Edward Island is vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, especially coastal erosion, sea-level rise, and storm surges. Islanders are particularly worried about their homes and cottages built close to the water鈥檚 edge.
The Government of Prince Edward Island and the 17吃瓜 have come together to survey PEI鈥檚 changing coastline every year and build a number of tools that allow Islanders to understand their property鈥檚 vulnerability to coastal erosion.
