Meet the environmental lab deliberately built to drown. In Norfolk, a nonprofit is creating a project to show coastal cities how to live with rising sea levels before the inevitable.
The idea was first championed in the 1990s by James Titus, a sea-level rise expert at the Environmental Protection Agency who clashed with agency officials over his repeated calls to address the problem.— the legal principle that the government owns natural resources like rivers and shorelines.
By agreeing to rolling easements, property owners get tax benefits from the federal government and from some states, Stiff said. For now, state and local governments face expensive buyouts and potential court battles.
