  • Why is Environmental Education Relevant?

  • Why is Coastal Community Resilience Important?

    Resilience is the capacity of human and natural systems to adapt to and recover from change.  To continue to enjoy living and receiving the benefits the Gulf of Mexico coastal region has to offer, there is a need to make the natural, built, and social environments more resilient.
