Parts of East Yorkshire lose metres of coastline every year as coastal erosion becomes a constant battle to stop.
Entire villages in our region could fall into the sea if we do not act now to stop climate change.
In some areas of the Holderness coast a staggering four metres of land is being lost each year.
Take a trip along the coast at Skipsea, Aldbrough and Ulrome and you will be able to witness the desolation first-hand.
There are now roads that lead to nowhere which is leaving houses teetering on the brink.

  1. My first remembered holiday was at Ulrome, in an old railway carriage in the 50's. Long gone now of course along with so much of that coast. Thanks for the video which has brought back so many mempries of that coast which is disappearing so fast. Nicely edited BTW.

  2. Another brilliant flight over a coastline that is disappearing very quickly. In years to come the videos you are making may be the only record of what was…

  3. since when has natural erosion by the sea been due to climate change? and by climate change i assume you mean the normal climate cycles of the earth and not the eco zealot fossil fuels rubbish. sea levels have barely moved in decades according to the noaa website and are actually falling at over 50 current points of measurement. Much of the current rise has also been attributed to land movement. The sea near to me has risen a whopping 2 inches in my lifetime what will i do if it rises another inch before i die, oh the despair

  4. The erosion as fuck all to do with climate change but is environmental. If you have a coastline that is sedimentary (as it is sand cliffs) it will erode away until the sea reaches a more solid rock formations. If you put barriers up to attempt to stop the erosion all you do is make the coastline erode further up and/or down the coastline at the next weak coastline. This as been proven many times at different areas. The coast as eroded long before even we were on this planet, let alone the industrial revolution which all you climate zealots blame for everything. We were even connected to mainland Europe until the last ice age (which again was way before the Industrial Revolution) eroded the last land bridge to mainland Europe and made us the island we are now. All your so called data or 'facts' are highly flawed as soon as you actually examine them and realise that they are false and have more holes in them than a van load of Swiss cheese.

  5. This is nothing to do with climate change, they put a bunch of caravans on top of a cliff made of sand, the clue is in the name. The houses in the village were built way back because they knew the cliffs would erode 200 years ago. That coastal observation pill box was built at least 80 years ago and it's still nowhere near the beach. They can just move the caravans from the stupid place they were put and the problem is solved for the next 100 years. Coastal erosion is totally natural.
