10 Cidades Brasileiras Que Podem Desaparecer do Mapa e Uma Delas é Aqui do Litoral

There are cities in Brazil where the sea is advancing meters per year, entire neighborhoods have already been abandoned, and the ground is literally sinking beneath the feet of residents. In this video, I've compiled a list of 10 Brazilian cities at real risk of disappearing due to sea level rise, coastal erosion, flooding, and even mining, in descending order from the mildest risk to the most serious case in the country. And yes, our region is on this list. My name is Sergio, I was born, raised, and live in the city of Santos/SP, son of a stevedore (port worker), with a degree in environmental management, sustainability, and public policy. This video was requested by several subscribers to this channel, so let's get straight to the point. 📍 Cities on the list: 10th São Luís (MA) 9th João Pessoa (PB) 8th Fortaleza (CE) 7th Maceió (AL) 6th Rio de Janeiro (RJ) 5th Itajaí (SC) 4th Paranaguá (PR) 3rd Belém (PA) 2nd Recife (PE) 1st Santos (SP) All data presented comes from studies, universities, public agencies, and news reports.
