But that might only make the plan more urgent, researchers and advocates said. At stake is not only a national park and a home to unique wildlife, but also a flow of fresh water through South Florida that helps to replenish drinking water aquifers for the Miami area -- home to millions of people. If rising seas doom a plan to restore the area, all of that could be threatened. While some argue the plan is becoming obsolete because of rising seas, others say the plan is needed more than ever. It addresses the health of coastal wetlands, a barrier...

“The 5 Best Smart Water Leak Detectors Compared - Residential Tech Today” plus 1 more The 5 Best Smart Water Leak Detectors Compared - Residential Tech Today Posted: 15 Mar 2019 12:00 AM PDT Clean water, especially in the western U.S. has become both scarce and expensive.
