Save our sandy shores
Coastal erosion and climate change have already started to show their effect on Goan beaches. The fishermen and locals who live near these beaches along with scientists warn that today’s ripples could lead to a wave of destruction in the future where we not only face the risk of seeing such sand stretches reduced, but also witness a big part of Goa’s identity being washed away. Those concerned about the environment feel there has to be an immediate change in policy guided by scientific inputs if the recent trends are to be reversed and the gradual degradation of beaches can be stopped.
