How can we reduce the impacts of sea level rise and erosion on coastal infrastructure in LA beaches?
By growing coastal sand dunes!
Jazmin’s talk will focus on The Bay Foundation‘s Coastal Adaptation Program restoration efforts throughout the Santa Monica Bay and show how plants adapted to grow on beaches trap sand blown by the wind or pushed onshore by ocean water. Through planting, TBF can grow dunes that make the beaches taller, protecting our coastlines from flooding and extreme storms while creating wildlife habitat for endangered Snowy Plovers and El Segundo Blue Butterflies.
The Bay Foundation mission is to restore and enhance Santa Monica Bay and local waters by improving water quality, conservation efforts and rehabilitation of natural resources.
