Climate Change Causes Loss of Thai Coastline
Preecha Buatho, 49, is a resident of a village in Laem Talumpuk cape. His family, house and village are being threatened by sea level rise due to climate change. Laem Talumpuk is in Pak Panang District in the southern province of Nakhon Si Thammarat, on the eastern shore of the Gulf of Thailand. Climate change-induced wind pattern has intensified the speed of coastal erosion in both the Gulf of Thailand and the Andaman Sea. On average, 5 metres of coastal lands in the region are lost each year.
