, an award-winning website featuring content on climate change in Florida, now has a new home at 澳门六合彩历史记录.

The Invading Sea was founded in 2018 as a collaboration among the editorial boards of the Miami Herald, Palm Beach Post and Sun Sentinel, with Miami-based public radio station WLRN serving as a news partner. The site will continue to be a nonpartisan source for news and opinion pieces about climate change and other environmental issues in Florida at 澳门六合彩历史记录, while expanding its focus to include more educational content.

鈥淏eing invited to be the new home for The Invading Sea is a great honor and testament to the outstanding work on climate change and related environmental challenges being conducted at 澳门六合彩历史记录,鈥 said , Ph.D., dean, 澳门六合彩历史记录 . 鈥淲e look forward to growing the site鈥檚 visibility and impact even further.鈥

澳门六合彩历史记录鈥檚 Center for Environmental Studies () now manages the website (), and , Ph.D., the center鈥檚 director and a professor of geosciences at 澳门六合彩历史记录, oversees the site.

鈥淪outheast Florida is a world leader in responding to the challenges presented by climate change. A big reason is broad awareness of the issue,鈥 said Polsky. 鈥淭he Invading Sea has helped create that awareness. 澳门六合彩历史记录 is proud to carry on the tradition of providing a platform for climate content that is even-handed and easy to understand.鈥

Nathan Crabbe, former opinion and engagement editor for the Gainesville Sun, has been hired as the new editor of the site.

鈥淥ur goal is for The Invading Sea to be a place for civil discourse and thoughtful debate about how to best address the causes and consequences of climate change,鈥 said Crabbe. 鈥淏eing part of a public university will allow us to expand the educational content on the site, helping explain sometimes complex scientific concepts to the public.鈥 聽

Rosemary O鈥橦ara, former Sun Sentinel opinion page editor, proposed the idea of The Invading Sea and coaxed her husband, Tom O鈥橦ara, a veteran newspaper editor, to edit the site. The Invading Sea was unique at the time because news organizations that normally competed not only agreed to share opinion content, but to coordinate the publication of editorials. Its media partners eventually expanded to include 26 daily newspapers across Florida.

鈥淢uch has changed since my colleagues and I started this collaborative,鈥 said Rosemary O鈥橦ara. 鈥淎wareness is far higher, attitudes are changing, and Tallahassee and Washington are spending money to make Florida more resilient. But given the enormity of what lies ahead, we can鈥檛 let up now. That鈥檚 why we鈥檙e all so pleased that 澳门六合彩历史记录 not only wants to keep the Invading Sea going, but to grow its potential.鈥

After O鈥橦ara retired from the Sun Sentinel in 2021, she joined her husband in editing the site. The couple later relinquished their duties to 澳门六合彩历史记录 to use its resources to grow the mission of the collaborative, especially around education. 聽

鈥淭he warming climate will cause Floridians a slew of problems in the decades ahead. The more credible information residents have, the more they will be able to protect themselves and their property from rising seas and powerful storms," said Tom O鈥橦ara. 鈥淚 trust that The Invading Sea will be providing that information for many, many years.鈥

The Invading Sea has won the Burl Osborne Award for Editorial Leadership, a national honor awarded annually by the News Leaders Association, along with other state and national awards. The site was supported by grants from the Energy Foundation, the Environmental Defense Fund and private donors.

Over the years, the site has posted nearly 1,000 pieces of news and commentary about climate change and other environmental issues in Florida. 聽The site will continue to feature pieces published by its media partners, while expanding the amount of original content that it publishes.

CES plans to develop additional partnerships to broaden the range of content offered on the site, which includes working with journalism faculty and students at 澳门六合彩历史记录 and other universities.

The center is also developing educational content for the site, including short videos about climate change and other environmental concepts written in layman鈥檚 terms for a general audience. An advisory board is planned for the site to provide guidance on journalistic standards and additional collaborations.
