Cel mai mare oraş din lume se scufundă. Ce se întâmplă cu megalopolisul cu 42 de milioane de locuitori (FOTO) - Economica.net

Jakarta, now the world's most populous city, faces severe challenges including land subsidence, rising sea levels, and pollution. With around 42 million residents, the city struggles with daily flooding and inadequate infrastructure. The government plans to improve flood defenses and urban management, but social inequality exacerbates the situation. A proposed new capital, Nusantara, aims to alleviate some issues, yet Jakarta remains vital for millions. The city's growth leads to increased water demand and further subsidence, creating a cycle of vulnerability. Residents adapt by raising homes and using makeshift solutions, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable urban planning.
