The Speak Up For Blue Podcast

Andrew Lewin discusses a recent study that reveals major cities on the U.S. East Coast are sinking at a rate of up to 5 millimeters per year. The sinking land poses a significant risk to infrastructure such as roads, railways, airports, and pipelines. The study highlights the need for increased awareness and action to mitigate the potential damage and increased flood risks. The episode emphasizes the importance of considering sinking land alongside sea level rise and the challenges faced by cities in upgrading and adapting their infrastructure.  Link to article: https://phys.org/news/2024-01-nyc-dc-cities-east-coast.html Follow a career in conservation: https://www.conservation-careers.com/online-training/ Use the code SUFB to get 33% off courses and the careers program.   Facebook Group: https://bit.ly/3NmYvsI Connect with Speak Up For Blue: Website: https://bit.ly/3fOF3Wf Instagram: https://bit.ly/3rIaJSG Twitter: https://bit.ly/3rHZxpc    According to a recently published paper by Virginia
