From Daytona Beach News-Journal
“Daytona Beach is synonymous with its wide, flat expanse of beach meeting the waves of the Atlantic, and landward, the marshes of the Intracoastal Waterway, the vibrant Mosquito Lagoon, and the palm-lined Tomoka River. Yet with every passing day, with sea-level rise and storm surge, we are losing pieces of this natural wealth, our area’s defining character — and economic foundation. Ironically, these same vulnerable resources also present one of our best opportunities to meet the challenges of climate change head on.” |
