Coastal protection is essential to safeguard coastal communities, ecosystems, and infrastructure from the impacts of erosion, flooding, and storm surges exacerbated by climate change. It helps preserve vital habitats such as wetlands and mangroves, which provide natural barriers and support biodiversity. Additionally, effective coastal protection measures can enhance economic stability by protecting tourism, fisheries, and property values in vulnerable areas. Ultimately, it ensures the resilience and sustainability of coastal regions for future generations.
It Can Reduce Storm Damage To Coastal Structures.
Some disadvantages of doing nothing for coastal protection include increased vulnerability to storm damage, erosion, and flooding, which can lead to property damage and loss of infrastructure. Inaction can also result in loss of valuable habitats and ecosystems that protect coastal communities and support biodiversity. Ignoring coastal protection can ultimately lead to higher adaptation and recovery costs in the long term.

A sea defence is used to describe schemes which protect coastal areas from being flooded because of extreme waves or water levels. A coastal protection scheme is 'protecting' the coast from erosion and thereby protecting property/land etc which is near the coast
