A wide shot of Duckett's Grove, a ruined Gothic Revival castle in County Carlow, Ireland. The grey stone structure with its distinctive round tower and battlements stands under a cloudy sky. Lush green grass surrounds the castle, with tall, slender trees framing the view on either side. The castle's windows are empty, giving it a haunting yet grand appearance.

Près de 75 % des sites du patrimoine mondial de l’Unesco menacés par des problèmes liés à l’eau Sécheresse, inondations, pénurie… Ce sont près des trois-quarts des quelque 1 200 sites inscrits au patrimoine mondial de l’Unesco qui sont aujourd’hui menacés par des problèmes liés à un excès ou à u...

[5/5] Des solutions existent : restaurer les forêts, replanter des zones humides, limiter le béton, et reconnaître l’eau comme un bien commun mondial. Ces politiques renforceraient la résilience des sites du patrimoine mondial face aux aléas climatiques. #HGGSP #geography #heritagesites

Trois sites sur quatre classés à l’Unesco menacés par un risque grave lié à l’eau Pas moins de 73% des 1 172 sites non marins classés au patrimoine mondial sont confrontés à un manque ou un à excès d’eau, alerte une étude publiée par le World Resources Institute.

[4/5] D’ici 2050 44% des sites devraient connaître un stress hydrique élevé ou très élevé, contre 40% aujourd’hui. Les régions les plus menacées sont le Moyen-Orient, l’Afrique du Nord, le nord de la Chine et l’Asie du Sud, où les ressources en eau sont déjà tendues. #HGGSP #geography #heritagesites

[3/5] Certains sites cumulent les menaces. Les Ahwar d’Irak se dessèchent, Chan-Chan au Pérou subit El Niño et les sanctuaires d’oiseaux de la mer Jaune en Chine sont inondés et urbanisés. En réaction,la Chine a interdit les projets immobiliers à Bohai Bay dès 2018. #HGGSP #geography #heritagesites

[2/5] Des sites emblématiques sont en danger : le Taj Mahal, Yellowstone, Machu Picchu ou Pétra. En 2022, une inondation au parc de Yellowstone a coûté 20 millions de dollars. En Afrique australe, 45 millions de personnes ont eu besoin d’aide alimentaire en 2019. #HGGSP #geography #heritagesites

Trois sites sur quatre du patrimoine mondial sont menacés par le manque ou l'excès d'eau Près des trois-quarts des quelque 1 200 sites inscrits au patrimoine mondial de l'Unesco sont menacés par un manque ou par un excès d'eau, et parfois les deux en alternance, alerte une étude publiée,…

[1/5] Un rapport alarmant du WRI et de l’Unesco : 73% des 1172 sites du patrimoine mondial sont exposés à un risque grave lié à l’eau. 40% souffrent de pénurie, 33% risquent des inondations, et 21% connaissent des alternances entre sécheresse et excès d’eau. #HGGSP #geography #heritagesites

A striking black and white photograph of the tall, cylindrical stone chimney of Ballycorus Lead Mines, also known as Carrickgollogan Tower, standing prominently on a hilltop. A spiral staircase wraps around its exterior. In the background, a vast landscape extends towards the sea under a clear sky, with a town visible in the distance. The foreground shows rugged terrain and low-lying vegetation.
