Nakheel, the frontline developer when it comes to land reclamation for iconic property development, has already factored in adversities of climatic change to safeguard its reclaimed projects.
“Even looking at the most conservative figures [in the worst case scenario], the body of scientific evidence from around the world indicates a maximum sea level rise over the next hundred years of the order of half a metre. We have factored this into the final design levels of our reclamation projects,” a Nakheel spokesperson told Emirates Business.
