For decades, the Uppada coastline has been battling a relentless foe - coastal erosion. The sea, once a source of life and livelihood for the fishing communities, has turned into a formidable force, slowly devouring the land inch by inch.

Studies reveal that the Uppada coastline has eroded at an alarming rate of over 1 meter per year, claiming over 600 acres of land in the past three decades. This relentless erosion has displaced families, swallowed homes and farms, and threatened the very existence of the fishing community.

Despite the challenges, the spirit of the people of Uppada remains unbroken. They have adapted to the changing realities, adopting new fishing techniques and exploring alternative sources of income. The government has also stepped in, implementing measures to curb the erosion and rebuild damaged infrastructure.

The story of the Uppada coastline is a stark reminder of the impact of climate change on coastal communities. It is a story of loss, but also of hope and resilience. It is a story that compels us to take action and find sustainable solutions to protect our coastlines and the communities that depend on them.

In an attempt to combat this erosion, a unique solution was implemented in the mid-2000s: geotubes. These are large, sausage-shaped structures made of geotextile fabric filled with sand or sediment. They are placed parallel to the shoreline, acting as a barrier to absorb the impact of waves and reduce erosion.
