Looking Back, Looking Forward

GreenPolicy360 in Florida assisted in envisioning and proposing the publishing cooperative project that continues with the Invading Sea's publishing work.

Florida, the 'Frontlines of Climate Change'

GreenPolicy360's Climate News Florida project was originally organized to prompt a coordinated, cooperative climate-related news effort in Florida. Numerous news publishers, media, and others were approached and after a period of initiatives, the team at the Center for Environmental Studies at the Charles Schmidt College of Science at Florida Atlantic University has run a very successful online "source for news, commentary and educational content about climate change and other environmental issues affecting Florida."

Florida is, with its geography (karst/limestone), near sea-level topography (and sea-level rise impacts), its weather (extreme 'events' and hurricanes), rapidly warming waters in the Gulf of Mexico ('super-charging' tropical storms into hurricanes), and its politics (with 'climate change denial' prevalent)... Florida is, despite those who deny the climate/atmospheric/earth science, a prime example of dynamic change at the "Frontlines of Climate Change".
