According to forecasts made in 2019, large areas of Italy's coast were at risk of flooding due to the sea-level rise induced by climate change. This graph shows the 15 areas where a flood risk assessment had already been performed. In the Po Valley, extending across the regions of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Veneto, and Emilia-Romagna, an area of about 5.4 thousand square kilometers would be at risk of flooding by the end of the century.
