Hong Kong Village Tries to Stay Afloat Amid Rising Sea Levels

Local climate experts are hoping new software that can predict typhoon activity can help them prevent further sinking.

Tai O – Hong Kong's last traditional fishing village and one of its most popular tourist spots – is facing an uncertain future due to the effects of global warming. 

The remote village at the edge of Hong Kong's most mountainous island, Lantau, is dubbed "The Venice of Hong Kong."

Visitors come to the remote there to step back in time, enjoy locally caught seafood and wander through the village's network of houses built on wooden stilts.
