Climate Change and Historic Site Desecration
12/14/20
“How will climate change desecrate sites of historic significance?”
Climate change is already exacerbating weather events to more extreme levels. The destruction left in its wake will be foreseen everywhere. And one that is likely to be impacted quite greatly is historical sites. Historical sites are often near bodies of water and are built to withstand climates that no longer exist. These make them extremely vulnerable to climate disasters. This is the connection between Climate Change and Historic Site Desecration.
