As the Earth's ice melts and sea levels rise, cities along the coast are considering ways to hold back the rising waters. But a new government study predicts that many of California's most iconic beaches are in danger of disappearing.
As he takes one of his regular walks along the sidewalk overlooking the Santa Cruz coastline, Pat Terrault says the evidence of climate change is there for everyone to see.
"West Cliff Drive here in Santa Cruz was hammered!" he said. "I've been here for 55 years. I've never seen anything like that here." That includes some of the state's most iconic beaches, like Stinston, Santa Monica, Newport and Morrow Bay. In San Francisco, the model shows the coastline relocating about five blocks into the neighborhoods at Ocean Beach.
