Economic, Social and Enivronmental Aspects of Coastal areas, Lagoons and Wetlands in the era of Climate Change

The majority of the world's largest cities are situated 50 kilometers or less from a shoreline. The population densities along the coast are 2.6 times higher than those in the interior. The issue has gotten worse because to the significant urbanization, population growth, and industrial projects surrounding this zone. Travel has a big impact on coastal sprawl. Demands on coastal zones are always rising, which is causing serious environmental and socioeconomic issues along these delicate ecosystems. Despite increased awareness, there are still insufficient sustainable coastal management rules in place, and the proportion of protected coastal areas remains low despite a six-fold rise in recent decades.
