Lisbon’s Iconic Monument Threatened By Rising Sea Levels
People are running on the beach by the Belem Tower during sunset in Lisbon, Portugal, on December 2, 2023. The accelerated rise in the average sea level, along with increasingly intense and frequent heat waves, is threatening to reach the cliffs of the iconic Belem Tower, a World Heritage site, which could be severely damaged or flooded in the near future.
