Whitianga and Thames in Top Fifteen in NZ for Risk of Sea Level Rise

Denis from Thames

A NIWA report has counted the number of buildings in the lowest lying parts of New Zealand's coastline and assessed their replacement value.
On both building count and replacement value Thames is the 8th most at risk city or town in the whole of New Zealand. This ranking applies to the lowest lying zone up to 0.5 m above sea level through to the 1.5 m level. Ngatea is ranked 13th most at risk, and Whitianga is ranked 14th.
There is still some time for our towns to face this challenge, but the worst approach would be to pretend that sea level rise is someone else’s problem and fail to face up to and plan for what is coming. Make sure you get along to the Council coastal workshops in October and have your say.
