The Widening Sea

"The Widening Sea" refers to the observable increase in global sea levels caused mainly by climate change. As Earth's temperatures rise, polar ice melts and seawater expands because warmer water takes up more space. This leads to higher water levels, which can threaten coastal communities, ecosystems, and infrastructure. The phenomenon highlights the interconnected impact of human activity on climate and the importance of addressing global warming to mitigate future sea-level rise.
