[post_page_title]Shanghai, China [/post_page_title]
Building the city of Shanghai on dense swamplands wasn’t the best idea for those who want to see the sprawling metropolis survive. Between 1921 and 1965, Shanghai sunk eight feet below sea level, and is still dropping a half inch each year. The city is populated with 20 million residents – a concerning amount of people who will need to relocate to other regions of Asia. To slow down the sinking process, new buildings are being built on top of concrete foundations meant to hold their weight more efficiently than the swamplands would. The city will eventually disappear, though. Regardless of efforts to delay the event.
