South Carolina

It seems the ocean is rising everywhere. Scientists and regional planning groups in South Carolina fear that the ocean could move the beach 100 feet inland in the next century endangering shorefront construction and housing. The Southeast Regional Workshop on The Nation's Coasts wants to help communities deal with rising sea levels associated with global warming.

I've seen 2 million dollar homes lost to storm surge and beach erosion on Fire Island and other communities on eastern Long Island and it's not a pretty sight.

  • The more expensive oceanfront land is eroding on both coasts.
    They do indeed have something to be concerned with but it is
    a much larger problem than just the one area since it is all
    connected to the much larger global misuse.
