Elevated benches across Denmark provide reminder of rising sea levels

Description

In Copenhagen and in other Danish cities, intriguing elevated benches have been installed to raise awareness about climate change. "In large parts of the country we will see flooding as an everyday occurrence, so we try to illustrate that with the elevated bench to get people to talk about climate change," explains Kasper Adsbøll, a senior brand manager at television channel TV2, which initiated the project.
