"China's Shanghai is sinking as sea level rises faster than ever before. The city, a hub for trade and supply, was built on unstable ground, now facing a potential future underwater."

⭐ Over 60% of cars sold in Shanghai this year are fully electric.

⭐ Shanghai is sinking due to rising sea levels and unstable delta soil.

⭐ 94% of the city's rapid sinking is attributed to human activities.
