Jakarta
is one of the world's rapidly
sinking cities
North Jakarta
sunk
1 metre
in a decade
At this rate portions of Jakarta could be completely under water in
2050
Why is Jakarta one of the worlds most rapidly sinking cities
due to
withdrawal of groundwater
which causes
land to sink
and the
sea to rise
