The coastal zone management warrants serious attention.
✓

Answer

The coastal zone management warrants serious attention because-
  1. Compared to the other agents of erosion the work of sea waves goes on ceaselessly.
  2. Erosion in some part and deposition in the adjoining part keeps on taking place constantly. The beaches and bars which are formed due to deposition are also eroded.
  3. Coastal regions are always vulnerable to the risk of getting submerged due to increase in sea level.
  4. Coastal regions are also the regions of high population density.
