Maldives: Devastated by the coral bleaching and rising sea level, Maldives’ survival as a sovereign nation is at stake. Having 80 percent of its 1,200 islands at sea level not more than 1m, soon there will be the time when sunbathing on the serene white sand will be an unattainable dream. According to the reports, the island may perish in 100 years.

Almost three-quarters of the historic city was submerged last year following high tides and powerful storms that have killed at least 11 people in the region. Besides floods, the escalated rate of tourism has hampered the city to a large extent.
