Fred Grimm’s columns appeared on October 22nd and 26th on the Miami Herald website and in the print edition the following days in response to the October 19th release by FAU if a Summary Report on its study on SE Florida’s Resilient Water Resources (link: http://www.ces.fau.edu/files/projects/climate_change/SE_Florida_Resilient_Water_FAU2011.pdf) The release of this report coincided with with the 21st Annual Conference of the Society of Environmental Journalists held this week Miami’s Intercontinental Hotel. I was also a guest speaker at the SEJ Conference’s seminar and tour on Sea Level Rise on October 20th. The press release and conference presentation resulted in extensive media coverage in Southeast Florida’s newspapers and a TV newscast on WPTV-5 in West Palm Beach.
