The Post and Courier Rising Waters Forum: Coastal Squeeze
This event is free to attend, but registration is required.
Join us for a panel discussion on Coastal Squeeze – As a result of the erosion of protective natural habitat, our communities become even more vulnerable to intemperate weather. Are there solutions to this dilemma? The Post and Courier will consult with experts to examine:
- What this means for Myrtle Beach
- What’s likely to come
- What remedies might be adopted
- What implications “coastal squeeze” has for other areas of South Carolina
- And more…
