Other areas in South Florida are facing the same problem. Many cities have begun to increase preventative flooding measures. 
Combating Flooding
- Miami has raised city roads and installed water removing pumps (Donald 1) 
- Floodwalls, sea improvements, pumping stations have also been installed (Cox 1)
- Many people in the area are resistant to change as there is high cost 
Wildlife
- Sea level rise has caused the population denisty in the area to grow 
- This leads to expansions that destroy the homes of the wildlife there
- Beach erosion also pushes the wildlife further inland

GLOBAL EFFECTS
Droughts

Climate Change
- Climate change not only effects sea levels but disrupts the process of photosynthesis 
- There is also an increase in rainfall as well as tropical storms

AFFECT ON REGION
Environmental Damage
- Higher sea levels lead to further coast erosion 
- Warm climate change also effects the agricultural success of the region
Flooding
- Flooding has caused many people to lose their homes
- Fixing personal homes and city damage is expensive 
- The area has to deal with short and long term costs to prevent the area from further flood damage (Cox 1) 
ACTIONS TAKEN

ACTIONS TAKEN

Flooding- Flooding has caused many people to lose their homes- Fixing personal homes and city damage is expensive - The area has to deal with short and long term costs to prevent the area from further flood damage (Cox 1)

Environmental Damage- Higher sea levels lead to further coast erosion - Warm climate change also effects the agricultural success of the region

AFFECT ON REGION

Climate Change- Climate change not only effects sea levels but disrupts the process of photosynthesis - There is also an increase in rainfall as well as tropical storms

Droughts- Many areas now suffer from intense droughts - This effects the local agricultural system as well as the running water source
