Threats to Coastlines and Coastal waters

Today on Sustainable East End, we talk about threats to our coastlines and coastal waters and what can be done about them. 

First, we speak with Larry Swanson, interim dean of the School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences at Stony Brook University. 

He recently consulted with leaders in two North Shore villages, Nissequogue and Head of the Harbor, about how sea level rise threatens their coastal properties and harbors, such as Stony Brook harbor. 

Then we talk with Kelly Dennis of the Shinnecock Nation about the tribe’s Coastal Habitat Restoration Project.
