From NBCBoston: Rising Seas: Time for Mass. Towns to Retreat From the Coast?
“As climate change reshapes the coastline, some towns are weighing whether to protect vulnerable waterfront homes or encourage the owners to leave. Environmental experts say it’s a choice all coastal communities will face.”
“Retreat” is a third-rail topic,
where opinions are rather myopic.
“You should abandon and leave”,
versus “You are so naive”,
Uncle Sam, can you be philanthropic?
