This lecture is designed to address issues facing Florida's coasts, from pollution to sea level rise, based on my recent book, "Tampa Bay: The Story of an Estuary and Its People." Students are not expected to have read the book before attending, but it is encouraged. Through a discussion of the history of Tampa Bay, particularly efforts to clean and restore the bay, students will have a greater understanding of the causes of the threats facing Florida's coasts and insights into the steps necessary to address those challenges. This program is being presented as a seminar with limited enrollment to foster discussion.
