Sochi could lose 80% of its beaches within 60 years
Original: пляж
Experts cited by regional outlet Yuga.ru warn that Sochi may lose up to 80% of its beach areas over the next 60 years, as the shoreline is eroding and retreating into the sea. The Black Sea resort city relies heavily on its beaches for tourism, so the forecast has raised concerns about the environmental and economic future of Russia's main seaside destination.
Why now: Warnings about the erosion of Russia's most popular resort coastline are prompting discussion among residents and tourists.
