China is Sinking, 270 Million People are in danger. Here’s why | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Nearly half of urban cities in China are sinking and 270 million people are in danger. 45% Chinese cities are sinking faster than 3 mm per year. While 16% of China's urban areas are sinking faster than 10 mm per year. The figures seem small but in 100 years, a quarter of China's coastal land will sit below sea level. This decline in elevation is increasing the risk of natural disasters and land collapse. Why is this happening? Mainly because China is sinking under the weight of infrastructure. And rampant groundwater pumping is simply increasing the speed of the process. What can be done about it? What has President Xi Jinping done so far? Which other nations are sinking? Palki Sharma tells you.

Instead of fixing those problems, China is busy destroying reefs and creating artificial islands in the sea thousands of kilometers from them near the coast of Philippines. So good luck for the Chinese people.
Its okay for China to build artificial islands, they have the money, in fact they have surplus US dollars to spend.
5,000 years? that’s the mongol empire and aslo lead by khan ethnicity most Chinese people that you considered now are from Han ethnicity or the slave and commoner in that era so it is a disgrace to say china existed 5,000 years ago. China is just a recent country much recent than United States if you really know history and not bcoz of Chinese drama and propaganda@@SandeepChand2
If you’re still pushing that Tang Dynasty and Qing is considered China then it is the same pushing Mongolia to wage a war with China 😂😂
Those reef belongs to China. Phillippines has no business being there.
It’s for strategic military reasons.
@@JeromeP-jg9tx says who ?
now… because they want the whole south china sea , the sea comes to them …🙄
Correct
😂
Please call it Champa sea and not south *””*** sea
@@randomguy-339 I found the East Africa Ocean is expanding, one day it going to sink India.
@@reality5953 😀😀😀 keep dreaming and tell us what you smoke on daily basis
This is as a result of greediness. They already have a big landmass and yet they are building more illegal man made artificial islands.
not your business
Hi, it’s me Nonya Bizness
Actually it’s the whole world’s business. Ignorant Internet trolls should educate themselves. Think of the run off pollution that manifests from this crisis.
Xi Jinping is the disaster…😮
Absolutely
India is also following the same line, if we continues pumping groundwater then the condition of India will also be the same, their is only one solution is rain water harvesting.
Absolutely we should learn from these incidents but we are blind
@@vikashpandey9230 koi nhi bhai ,jb pachtange tb smjhenge
Except indian cities suck so even if it sink no difference😂
Let First Post do talk about India’s’ similar National
burning issues. But will not….ADVT….by ruling to
the channel ….!!!!!!!
We Indians are always pointing at others and making noise as if we are perfect lol 😂 we best at doing drama playing ghanta bells and singing bhajaaan and doing laundry and drying inside temple lol … other nations also have done so much but we do one thing and brag about it again and again like an it’s something major lol
Please dont concrete every bit of land around your home, leave a small space unconcreted which can absorb rain water and maitain ground water, if every single house and flats follow this floods can be avoided and scarcity of water will not prevail, pls try this method and we can save our 🌍 planet
Totally agree
We are drying out our planet
Why so we don’t walk on dirt
The same dirt we so called came from
My brother we are doomed by the doctrine that man is above all
Creation … we must disgust our creator for the way we treat all life in a harmful manner for our convenience or imagination our
Well u get it
We are the keeper of the earth
That’s WORK
We rather be spoiled brats that spend the inheritance on booze cokane N HoooooKERRRzzzz
That’s why they are so obsessed with land grabbing policy😂😂
Free Manipur
💯
free asam
Free Tibet
Amazing story
The fury of nature is beyond man’s imagination
May God help the people
Indians don’t have to worry about the Chinese. They will have time to move to Tibet )))
Chinesen haben eine kommunistische Regierung die nicht an einen Gott glaubt sondern nur an sich selber.
Problem is that they don’t believe in Jesus. They persecute those that are Christians, perhaps they should consider stopping that. . .
@@sallysailor5642 Maybe they realized that those religions have no real basis and are nothing but ways to inflitrate and weaken their culture.
@@jment34 Maybe the majority don’t realize how much they need Jesus, humbled and intelligent human beings understand that nothing comes from nothing, in other words, creation cannot originate from nothingness (Parmenides), it required a non-created intelligent entity (God).
I love this reporter 😂 she reports in a simple and interesting way ! My 16 year daughter quit tic toc to just listen to this reporter 🤣🤣🤣she now knows more current affairs than me 👏👏👏
Encourage her
Hatred pays. LOL
She read the script…not so smart.
You need to get an education and you will learn what is fact and what is propaganda. She is propaganda.
I wonder if this is TRUE,
Love the double meanings, “sinking feeling”, “grasp the gravity”, “sink or swim” 😂👍
I know…. 🙄…. It left me in deep reflection, what did she mean? Is there a secret message between the written lines?? 🤔😳😅…… Uhuh
😂😂😂
I really enjoy listen when she tells the news.
Milwaukee Wisconsin
STRAIGHT TO THE POINT
ONE CAN LEARN MUCH FROM HER. I UNDERSTAND HER AND SHE SPEAKS CLEAR.
Yes I agree. Palki has a marvellous voice and delivery 👍👍👍
I also enjoy her professionalism and nothing but the facts.
Absolutely right you are, no drama like others
She is the only news I watch I avoid all others at all costs she’s just brilliant I can’t explain what it is
Not only that she is modi’s youngest daughter
You want sea??? God gave you a SEA 😂😂
edit : Thanks for 2million likes 🫣
Hahaha
Hahahaha
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Its fake news for anti-China viewers.
😂😂
Great Video ❤ I like how the Reporter is Detailed in the interview about things going on in China. Great Information.
Thank God,these Chinese and CCP need to focus on themselves and leave the world alone
Hmm I think you mean American. Don’t see 100 military base around the world like America
@@yvonnefurniss138 Both. But China 1st.
You clearly meant amurrica? Bc china didnt built its military bases all over the world amd created nato madness😂
China and its people are focusing on themselves, it is the neocons who are trying to demonize China!
They may be looking to invade America and other Nations.
This reminds me of the time the Professor thought the island was sinking but it was just Gilligan moving the sticks that anchored his lobster traps.
😅😂
Not laughing at china,the Gilligan comment.
What a great memory you have! I now remember that!! You’re awesome 😊
You finally said it correctly. Sinking due to the water table not global warming!
Didn’t she just say there are two parts to this? China is sinking and the sea level is rising due to climate change? I agree, I don’t believe it is due to “climate change” but this anchor believes this is one of the two reasons.
🙄🙄🙄 are you a scientist, or another clown claiming to be one
& poor infrastructure
@cinnamonparsley6384 Then what is your educated explanation why huge, thousands of years old glaciers are melting all over the world, at very rapid rates? And, where do you think the water from the melting goes?
@annar6591 oh it’s definitely John Kery’s fault! His + A lGore’s
From what I heard is that The Same thing is Happening With New York, it also is Sinking because of the Weight of the Buildings
Im American, and I have to say I really appreciate your newscasts. You speak facts and are unbiased; it’s refreshing to experience.
You have not known her even a bit, in my opinion!!!
@@yaphonghor4409 Your opinion does not matter. Not your business anyway.
Do you really think land can sink? Or do you think sea level raises due to global warming? You need to be smarter to understand land cannot sink!
@@SimonCU Your question raises irks in my opinion. Ask yourself or others what will happen when you became a fertilizer. What will happen next? Will land sink or raise due to the so-called GLOBAL WARMING Huh, smart pants?
@@SimonCULand can most definitely sink. How do you think sinkholes happen?
“China gave the world Covid, now the world gives China the sea”
What? 😧 My IQ just drop hard 😢
Covid is American
@@boiscooka232 meaning karma
@@omarhussain7204 it is now because of China
@@j-moe422 I don’t believe is Karma 😧 I believe in cow 🐄

Philippines didnt fight back,when china harrased them,,when Filipinos prayed,God Listening..& now God give them a Lessons..
