A motorcyclist passes on the road damaged by submerged abrasion in Cemarajaya Village, Karawang, West Java, on January 11, 2024. More than 6 km of coastline from the border of Cemarajaya Village experiences soil erosion over the last two decades. Villages on the northern coast narrow year by year. The people who live there are forced to adapt to these environmental changes. In addition, climate change is a serious problem facing the Earth today. One of the issues is sea level rise. Rising sea levels cause widespread abrasion in coastal areas. Especially when a storm comes along with the tide, the waves hit the settlements in the surrounding area. This threat is what those who inhabit the islands of the world face.
