Last May the Marine Institute published a report called Irish Ocean Climate and Ecosystem Status Report in which it pointed out we are vulnerable to rising sea levels. In fact, 40% of our population lives within 5 km of a coast. It seems inevitable that the sea will rise. Has the State any long-term plans to deal with this issue?
