Fairbourne is a small village on the west coast of Wales. In the shadow of Snowdonia, the village, thanks to rising sea levels, is expected to be the UK’s first community to be decommissioned as a result of climate change.Sea defences will stop being maintained in the 2050s, but Gwynedd Council said it may begin "decommissioning" the village before then and start moving residents out. People living there are angry – public consultations on the plans are ongoing. Meanwhile in the village of Happisburgh in Norfolk, climate change is said to be speeding up the impact of coastal erosion. 40 metres of land has been lost this year.5 Live reporters Rory Carson and Stephen Chittenden have been speaking to people in both villages.
