Earth’s Future: Insights From Managed Retreat Projects in Europe. “Here, we present a data set of European managed retreat cases, based on a multilingual review of academic and gray literature, as well as media articles. We found 44 implemented or planned cases of managed retreat across the continent, spanning 11 countries, ranging from the relocation of individual assets to more than 1,500 […]

Managed retreat (Geomorphology 🏞️)
Managed retreat involves the purposeful, coordinated movement of people and buildings away from risks. This may involve the movement of a person, infrastructure, or community. It can occur in response to a variety of hazards such as flood, wildfire, or drought. Politicians, insurers, and residents are increasingly paying attention to managed retreat f...

@nrdufour Interestingly enough, it's an actual "managed retreat from sea level rise" exercise there... But it required a nonprofit to buy out the houses from the owners.
"The Seashore recently purchased two threatened oceanfront properties and associated structures in Rodanthe. Thanks to the National Park Trust for their assistance and funding from the Land and Water Conservation Fund, properties at 23292 and 23298 East Beacon Road were purchased for fair market value using zero taxpayer dollars. Fair market value was determined by a certified appraiser and the Department of the Interior's Appraisal and Valuation Services Office."

"In California, where fires have consumed more than roughly 220,000 acres of land in just this year, major insurers like State Farm, Allstate and Farmers have all pulled back. In some areas, they have stopped writing new policies and have canceled some existing policies...Spooked by these numbers, insurers are declining to write policies in huge swaths of the American West." https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/15/business/wildfires-home-insurance-building-standards.html fts #CoreLogic re: #ManagedRetreat et al.

"Managed retreat does not mean moving the entire community, or even moving people from the suburb.
...
Instead, the suburb might exist within a smaller or changed footprint, Rowe says. "Maybe high-density housing, maybe there's more green and blue space. So when it does flood the water goes in those places rather than people's homes and living rooms." -
“Katrina, it turns out, wasn’t a singular anomalous crisis. It was the beginning of a new era in which the reality of the storms and coastal surges was plain to see and looked nothing like the past. People began to realize that adaptation was less of an option than it used to be. Many simply had to leave. Almost every parish closest to the coast…has been fast losing population” https://www.propublica.org/article/climate-migration-louisiana-slidell-flooding re: #managedretreat et al.

Infuriating how state governments like #California (and the taxpayers who fund them) are subsidizing the insurance of people who have recklessly built mansions on ocean cliffs. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/mar/05/california-luxury-homes-climate-change

"We find that as sea level rise changes the frequency of inundation events, 99% of properties currently within 1% AEP coastal inundation zones can expect at least partial insurance retreat within a decade (with less than 10 cm of sea level rise)...full insurance retreat is likely within 20–25 years, with timing dependent on the property’s elevation and distance from the coast, and less intuitively, on the tidal range in each location."

In 2003, [Tony McMichael | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_McMichael] suggested that skiers would be the first to notice how the climate is already changing. He was right, but also too optimistic. It seems that people take a very long time to notice what's going on.

Parts of the US are now uninsurable. We will likely see a shift to risk-based pricing. Economists warn that the government should buy out and move homeowners from areas affected by wildfires and floods, or there will be market chaos. #climate #economy #realestate #insurance #managedretreat #RiskBasedApproach https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/31/climate/climate-change-insurance-wildfires-california.html

It wouldn't surprise me if some of these islands were the first in #Europe to disappear because of #SeaLevelRise - the pace of silting in the #WaddenSea will perhaps not be able to keep pace with rising seas within a few decades, at least not in all places.
