Panama City, Panama
According to experts, Panama City’s Casco Viejo and its exclusive Costa del Este neighborhood will likely be submerged by 2050. The city was founded in 1519 by Spanish conquistador Pedro Arias de Ávila and became the first European settlement along the shores of the Pacific.
Climate Central says the 17th and 18th-century military fortifications on Panama’s Caribbean coast are also at stake. The defense system has been on UNESCO’s risk list since 2012 because of a few environmental factors, including future coastal flooding.
Mumbai, India
New predictions show that the financial capital of India, one of the world’s largest cities, is at risk of being wiped out by future coastal flooding. Constructed on what was once a series of islands, the city’s historic downtown is especially vulnerable.
Its iconic Gateway of India stone arch, which oversees the Mumbai harbor waterfront, and an ancient complex of rock-cut caves on Elephanta Island could be among the beautiful places to be engulfed by the Arabian Sea.
Bangkok, Thailand
A recent study found that Bangkok could be the city that’s hit the worst by global warming in the short term. The Thai capital sits a mere 5 feet above sea level, and, like Venice, it’s sinking. Only this is happening much faster, by about an inch per year.
But Bangkok is also built on very thick clay soil, which makes it even more prone to future coastal flooding. By the end of the decade, most of the coastal areas of Tha Kham and Samut Prakan could be underwater.
As a matter of fact, so could its main airport, Suvarnabhumi International.
Bahamas
Many small island nations will be significantly affected by future coastal flooding, including The Bahamas, which was devastated by Hurricane Dorian in 2019.
Because of climate change, most of Grand Bahama, including Abaco, Nassau, and Spanish Wells, are predicted to be underwater by 2050.

Amazing that many do not see climate change as what it tells is, nature changing. But that explanation does not allow for taxing and controlling freedoms, which is what the globalists and democrats really want! The positive side to it is that many of today’s youth who are guillible enough to support it will eventually end up working for the collective and realizing reality sucks!
Exactly. Remember our lifespans are short compared to the age of our planet and it has gone through several climate changes.
More than just Louisiana coastal areas, think about Port Arthur, Galveston, and possibly Corpus Christi. The Gulf is coming!
I do Notice a complete disregard of the phenomenon of “Subsidence”, being land settling due to ground water pumping caused by man needing a drink.
And I also Notice a complete disregard of the phenomenon of “Erosion”, being the washing away of the beaches and coastlines due to Entirely NATURAL action of waves washing away sand and soil.
But then again this being one of those “Alarmist” articles on Anthroprogenic climate change and only mentioning Subsidence in regard to “Skyscrapers” , I guess it should have been expected.
But I also Remember from high school a photograph of an Old Buick Car ( new at the time of the photo ) with a guy leaning on the fender, And pointing out the telephone poles in the background and stating that the Tops of the poles (30-40′ above the Car ) were at the original ground level, And The Surface had Settled due to groundwater Pumping for Crop Irrigation of the Napa and San Joaquin valleys, and population Growth in the area is ONLY going to make Subsidence worse.
Miami, Fl.?
Manmade Climate change is a fraud.
Just another way for the global elites to control people for world domination by controling fuel,food,funds and mobility of everyone by the NWO.
I’ve watched the Atlantic Ocean from the beach every day for the last 30 years.
The tides rise and fall twice a day.
The tides are very noticeable.
Every wave, large or small, washes up the sand.
The waves are very noticeable.
Whatever few millimeters the ocean level may have risen is dwarfed by the tides and waves is not noticeable.
Will many coastal land areas be completely inundated by the end of the century?
NOT SO’S YOU’D NOTICE!
What Miami did not make this list? It will be the first to go!!
