With all the water that’s been falling from the sky recently, it’s fitting that there’ve been a number of good news stories about water-related topics.
For the third year in a row, Ecology invited folks to get their cameras and snap photos of the season’s unusually high tides. People in Australia, British Columbia, Oregon and other places are doing the same thing, as part of what’s called the King Tide initiative. The idea is to look at the high tides and envision what sea level rise would look like, as a result of climate change.
Read what a number of news sources are saying about Ecology’s King Tides initiative.
