| Welcome to Atlantic Rising |
| |
Atlantic Rising is a charity on a 32,000 mile journey circumnavigating the Atlantic overland along the 1m contour line. This is the level scientists predict sea levels may reach in the next 100 years.
Along the way we are creating an educational network between 15,000 students in low-lying coastal communities. Through our photography, films and writing, we are also documenting what will be lost if these predictions come true.
We don't claim to have all the solutions to stop sea levels from rising. But we hope our work will help the next generation understand their responsibility to each other to build a sustainable future. |

Check out our Hot Topics
Since we left the UK in September 2009 we have been writing a regular blog for The Ecologist about the effects of climate change on communities around the Atlantic. You can read it on our Hot Topics pages. Why not use these stories as case studies in your school?
