Dear NRDC Supporter,

Our seas are rising. From the North Sea to the Bay of Bengal, from the Pacific Rim to the Atlantic coasts of the Americas, rising waters caused by climate change are threatening the lives and homes of billions of people.

For 10 years, Dutch photojournalist Kadir van Lohuizen has been documenting the impact of rising sea levels around the world. Now his work can be seen in a powerful new book, After Us the Deluge: The Human Consequences of Rising Sea Levels from Lannoo Publishers. It captures not only stories of devastation, but of human beings' extraordinary gifts for creativity and adaptation.

Read on for some of van Lohuizen's most captivating shots below, and check out NRDC.org to see more stunning images that put a human face to the climate crisis that impacts us all.
