70% of the Red River mouth area is in danger

Scientists have identified two main groups that cause coastal damage due to climate change-related hazards , namely: Disasters such as erosion, accretion, and channel changes. , storms and floods, rising sea levels and environmental pollution; Factors affecting strongly after geological disasters such as mud, sand, sand, original rock and groups of people's activities such as aquaculture, agriculture, sea transportation .

Up to 70% of the study area is in the medium and relatively high level of danger distributed in Tien Hai town, Ngo Dong and the coastal communes of Hong Thuan, Giao Nhan and Giao Than (Thai Binh), and Con Thu, Con Vanh and Xuan Thuy National Park. Areas with particularly high levels of danger account for 16% in coastal areas such as Giao An, Giao Hung (Nam Dinh), Hong Tien (Thai Binh), south of Ba Lat estuary and areas with low vulnerability. about 14%.

On the basis of assessing the level of vulnerability and self-response as well as analyzing the causes of dangerous impacts on environmental resources of the region, scientists have introduced many solutions to sustainable use of environmental resources. , strengthening the effectiveness of laws, community-based management policies, integrated coastal management with regional planning for sustainable use of resources with many sustainable economic models.

According to Mr. Tran Mai Uoc, Ho Chi Minh City Banking University, it is necessary to develop a map of risks due to climate change and sea level rise in RRD with a plan to create new breeds of livestock and plants to suit the current weather and soil of the region. At the same time, it is necessary to build stations to monitor and monitor wetland resources; restore and expand mangrove forests, build and operate the impact monitoring system of the Red River Delta and hydroelectric dams on the Da River.
