Presented by The Trustees of Reservations. Beaches and coastal banks are some of the vulnerable coastal landscapes on the front lines of climate change, forecast to face accelerating impacts. As reported in the second annual State of the Coast—focused on Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket and Gosnold—our island beaches experience some of the highest erosion rates, statewide. The expense and short-term nature of sand nourishment techniques, the vulnerable geology of the Islands, and the increasing fury of Mother Nature, means making hard choices: Which beaches can or should we protect? In this webinar, we explore some of the vulnerable habitats and places, and detail resilience projects underway.
