Italy is the country with the highest risk of erosion of coastlines in Europe. In detail, out of 8,300 Km of total coasts, there are evident signs of strong erosion in 1,200 km. According to the surveys of Eurosion (Project of General Direction of European Commission) over 15 sq km of beach are lost every year in Europe: recently, in Italy alone, the sea eroded 4 km2 of beaches, entire shorelines disappeared, or strongly withdrew. The erosive trend is undergoing an exponential growth rate; this phenomenon, therefore, is destined worsen in the short run if no timely actions are adopted.
