Village in Indonesia is Sinking

The village in Indonesia is sinking. It is happening very fast. The village is called Timbulsloko. It is on the Javanese coast. The water is going into the land. This is called coastal erosion. It is very bad for the village. The mangroves help to stop the water. But they have been cut down or damaged. Many families have to leave their homes. But some people cannot leave. They have to adapt to the new situation. They change their houses or their work. Some people are trying to fix the mangroves. They want to make the coastline stronger. This will help to protect the village.
