Sea-level rise poses a major threat to #Maldives. The #MaldivesCCDR projects a rise of up to 0.9m by 2100. Coastal flooding could damage 3.3% of total assets by 2050, stressing the need for urgent climate adaptation efforts.

90% of #Maldives' resorts face moderate to severe beach erosion, per #MaldivesCCDR survey findings. To ensure climate resilience, the tourism sector must adopt green, climate-resilient infrastructure and strengthen regulatory frameworks.

#MaldivesCCDR estimates a potential 11% reduction in #Maldives' GDP by 2050 under a high-emission scenario. However, with sustained investments in climate adaptation, this impact could be reduced to 6%.

#MaldivesCCDR projects a nearly 100% reduction in fish catch potential by 2100 under a high-emission scenario, potentially wiping out 99% of fisheries revenue. Urgent action is needed to diversify livelihoods and protect fish stocks. 🐠

Gray infrastructure for coastal protection has mixed results. In some, it leads to the destruction of coral reefs, impacting #Maldives' tourism and fisheries.

#MaldivesCCDR calls for a balanced approach combining engineered and nature-based solutions: https://t.co/MRFjyb4h1m https://t.co/T2bb4k0XW8
