Models indicate that here in the Keys up to 50% of properties will be submerged by 2050 due to sea level rise…….just 24 years from now. There’s a lot of remedial talk but not much action. Still the construction continues putting our dwindling resources under greater pressure. All our water comes from Miami-Dade and is currently imperiled due to drought.

Money keeps the oncoming disaster inevitable.
