Why this matters in The Miami
Miami's connection to the Everglades is more than just geographical, as the health of the ecosystem has a direct impact on the city's water supply and flood protection. The Everglades' role in mitigating the effects of Atlantic hurricanes and sea-level rise is crucial for Miami's low-lying neighborhoods, such as Miami Beach and Little Havana. As the city continues to grow and develop, the importance of preserving the Everglades cannot be overstated. The efforts of the Everglades Foundation and its partners to raise awareness and push for restoration in Washington, D.C. are a testament to the local community's commitment to protecting this vital resource. Miami-Dade County's residents, from Wynwood to Brickell, have a vested interest in the success of these efforts, and the outcome of the foundation's advocacy will be closely watched by those who call Miami home.
