Florida turns to 'Living Laboratory' to adapt to climate change

Original: Climate change is changing Florida. A ‘Living Laboratory’ could help state adapt

Florida, one of the US states most exposed to rising seas, stronger hurricanes and extreme heat, is being described as a 'living laboratory' for climate adaptation. The idea is that the state can serve as a testing ground for strategies that help communities adjust to conditions already reshaping coastlines, infrastructure and daily life, with lessons potentially useful well beyond Florida.

Why now: Renewed attention to climate impacts in Florida as the state faces visible effects of warming and looks for adaptation models.
