Setting out into the Gulf of Mexico in threes and fours, fishermen returned with buckets of tarpon and long, streaked snook. There was more than enough to feed them, and build a community &#8211; three schools, a small church and a basketball court on the sand.<\/p>\n<p>Then climate change set the sea against the town.<\/p>\n<p>Flooding driven by some of the world&#8217;s fastest sea-level rise and by increasingly brutal winter storms has all but destroyed El Bosque, leaving piles of concrete and twisted metal rods where houses used to line the sand. Forced to flee the homes they built, locals are waiting for government aid and living in rentals they can scarcely afford.<\/p>\n<p>The U.N. climate summit known as COP28 finally agreed this month on a multimillion-dollar loss-and-damage fund to help developing countries cope with global warming. It will come too late for the people for El Bosque, caught between Mexico&#8217;s economically vital national petroleum company and the environmental peril that it fuels.<\/p>\n<p>A rusting sign at the town&#8217;s entrance says over 700 people lived in El Bosque two years ago. Now there are barely a dozen. In between those numbers lie the relics of a lost community. At the old, concrete fishing cooperative, one of the few solid buildings left, enormous, vault-like refrigerators have become makeshift storage units for belongings &#8211; pictures, furniture, a DVD of Guinness World Records &#8211; that families left behind.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/14\/11\/78950487-12859929-C-a-58_1702552917649.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Flooding driven by a sea-level rise and increasingly brutal winter storms have destroyed the Mexican community of El Bosque, in the state of Tabasco, Mexico<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/14\/07\/wire-78950479-1702540695-632_634x422.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>An aerial view of the coastal community shows piles of concrete and twisted metal rods where houses used to line the sand<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/14\/11\/78950471-12859929-Yahir_Mayoral_and_Emily_Camacho_walk_amid_the_rubble_of_their_gr-a-68_1702554057641.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Yahir Mayoral and Emily Camacho walk amid the rubble of their grandmother&#8217;s home<\/p>\n<p>Guadalupe Cobos is one of the few still living in El Bosque.

A warming climate spins up more frequent storms as it slams into ultra-cold polar air, and then storms last longer &#8211; fueled by hotter air, which can hold more moisture.<\/p>\n<p>Local scientists say one more powerful storm could destroy El Bosque for good. Relocation, slowed by bureaucracy and a lack of funding, is still months away.<\/p>\n<p>As the sun sets over the beach, Cobos, known as Do\u00f1a Lupe to neighbors, pointed to a dozen small, orange stars on the line of the horizon &#8211; oil platforms burning off gas they have failed to capture.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;There is money here,&#8217; she said, &#8216;but not for us.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>As El Bosque was settled, state oil company Pemex went on an exploration spree in the Gulf &#8211; tripling crude oil production and making Mexico into a major international exporter.<\/p>\n<p>As the international community clamors for countries to wind down fossil fuel use, the single leading cause of climate change, Mexico next year plans to open a new refinery in its biggest oil-producing state, just 50 miles (80 kilometers) west of El Bosque.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/14\/11\/78950491-12859929-An_aerial_view_of_the_coastal_community_of_El_Bosque_in_the_stat-a-74_1702554084004.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>An aerial view of El Bosque.\u00a0Local scientists say one more powerful storm could destroy the town for good<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/14\/07\/wire-78950481-1702540693-740_634x422.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Residents&#8217; relationship with the sea is &#8216;like a toxic marriage&#8217;, Guadalupe Cobos (pictured above) said<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/14\/07\/wire-78950501-1702540696-83_634x422.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>A red cloth serves as a curtain for a school window in a classroom\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Gulf of Mexico sea levels are already rising three times faster than the global average, according to a study\u00a0co-authored by researchers from the United\u00a0Kingdom&#8217;s National Oceanography Center and universities in New Orleans, Florida and California this March.<\/p>\n<p>The stark difference is partly caused by changing circulation patterns in the Atlantic as the ocean warms and expands.<\/p>\n<p>The acceleration has also strengthened massive coastal storms like hurricanes Sandy and Katrina, researchers said, and doubled records of high-tide flooding from the Gulf up to Florida.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;In the 10 years before the acceleration, you might have had a period of rather slow sea-level rise. So people might have gotten a feeling of safety along the coastline, and then the acceleration kicks in. And things change very rapidly,&#8217; said lead scientist S\u00f6nke Dangendorf.<\/p>\n<p>When Eglisa Arias Arias, a grandmother of two, moved to El Bosque alone, she was excited to have her own garden for the first time, and it was rarely troubled by the sea. Her house was flooded in a storm on November 3, and she has rented an apartment a short drive inland.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I miss everything. I miss all the noise of the sea.

Locals on the Gasp\u00e9 peninsula of Quebec have been gradually fleeing the coast for over a decade, and just last year New Zealand&#8217;s government promised financial aid for some of the 70,000 homes it said will soon need to seek higher ground.<\/p>\n<p>Very little, however, seems managed about the retreat from El Bosque.

Then, a few days later, a moving van arrived unannounced to remove the center&#8217;s only fridge and the shelter was closed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It can&#8217;t be,&#8217; Sanchez remembers thinking. &#8216;They can\u00b4t leave us without food without telling us right?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Later that afternoon, an official arrived to announce the closure.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/14\/11\/78950469-12859929-Climate_refugee_urea_S_nchez_makes_the_bed_inside_the_home_she_i-a-80_1702554109493.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Climate refugee \u00c1urea S\u00e1nchez makes the bed inside the home she is renting, in Frontera, Mexico<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/14\/11\/78950473-12859929-A_window_frames_a_portion_of_the_shore_littered_with_debris_left-a-82_1702554115156.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>A window frames a portion of the shore littered with debris<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/14\/07\/wire-78950477-1702540693-864_634x422.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Fisherman Alberto Isidoro walks through his destroyed community.

That same day the shelter was closed, apparently permanently, with papered-over windows and a government sign advertising &#8216;8 steps to protect your health in the event of a flood&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>The national housing department, responsible for operating the shelter, did not respond when asked why it was closed, or if it would reopen.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, new houses will not be ready before fall 2024, according to Ra\u00fal Garc\u00eda, head of Tabasco\u00b4s urban development department, who added that, &#8216;I wish we could do it faster.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Advocates, and Garc\u00eda himself, said the process is too slow, and that Mexico needs new laws to cut through bureaucracy and quickly make money available for victims of climate change.
