With global oceans warming faster than ever before, countries like India, with their vast coastal populations, are particularly vulnerable. According to a World Meteorological Organization report, Mumbai will be among the cities most affected as sea levels rise around the world (WMO). The report shows that even if global warming is limited to the Paris Climate Agreement's goal of 1.5 degrees Celsius, there will still be a significant rise in sea level.
