Coastal assets worth $226b at risk: Combet
Shopping centres, office buildings, roads and railways worth $226 billion could be at risk if climate change causes the sea level to rise around one metre by 2100.
...
The report's assessment is based on a sea level rise of 1.1m by the end of the century.
Labor's climate commission says the most plausible estimate of sea level rise by 2100 is 0.5 to 1m.
That is higher than the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's top range of 0.18 to 0.76m.
