Упражнение 4

Slowly but surely the coastline of Britain is being worn away by an advancing sea. The country which once ’ruled the waves’ now is being ruled by them, with huge forces threatening to destroy vast areas of human and wildlife habitat. Already some of Britain’s last wild, natural areas have disappeared, and experts fear that this is just the beginning. It is estimatedthat there will be a 38—55 cm rise in average sea levels by the year 2100. According to the Department of the Environment, during the next 50 years at least 10,000 hectares of farmland will be turned into mud flats and salt marshes by the increases in sea levels. Rather than trying to prevent the erosion, the present government is using a method of ’managed retreat’ by creating new defences further inland and allowing low-lying coastal farm land be abandoned to the sea. However, many of the country’s major cities could also be affected. London, Bristol and Cardiff all are expecting severe flooding as our sea defences are being destroyed by the rising tides.
