Sea level rises could see towns near Manchester submerged under water towards the end of this century.
According to Climate Central's map of sea level rises, an increase of just half a metre will see parts of Morecambe, the Wirral and Liverpool below sea-level. The map says the areas will see a rise of half a metre by 2070 if carbon dioxide emissions remain unchecked.
This increases to one metre by 2090, which will see even more of the county submerged. Liverpool's George and Prince's Docks will disappear if the sea-levels rise.
