Climate change response draws mixed interest from zoning... | www.palmbeachdailynews.com

Click title for link to a previous Shiny Sheet article about the Southeast Florida Regional Climate Change Compact.  A presentation by representatives of the Compact occupied much of the Planning and Zoning Commission of the Town of Palm Beach.  Monroe, Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties are already represented and make up the Compact.  Its designed to share information on the threat of global warming and the resulting rise in sea levels - for which our region finds itself vulnerable due to its low elevation.  Lake Worth should review the Compact's work to see how it can become more "resilient" - remember that term being bandied about the dais? - to the coming changes.
