Managed retreat has been implemented in various locations around the world as a strategy to address the impacts of climate change and rising sea levels. Notable examples include New York City, where neighborhoods like Staten Island have seen efforts to relocate vulnerable communities and infrastructure post-Hurricane Sandy. In the United States, the town of Isle de Jean Charles in Louisiana is also undergoing managed retreat due to land loss from coastal erosion. Additionally, places like the Netherlands have adopted similar approaches to adapt to flooding risks, focusing on relocating vulnerable populations and restoring natural landscapes.
