Concerns that planners of Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Program didn't properly consider how climate-change impacts might affect the massive project are prompting another review of the planning.

Fire crews have contained 40 percent of the Cypress Camp Trail Fire at Big Cypress National Preserve in Florida. The fire has currently burned 9,722 acres since staff were notified of the fire on April 5th, 2023.

Long-legged and gangly, with oblong bodies, bald heads, and a long, curved bill, wood storks won't likely win any beauty contests. But they nevertheless are a poster child reflecting the success of the Endangered Species Act, as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is proposing that the species be removed from the list of threatened and endangered wildlife.

While much has been accomplished with restoration of the Everglades, and billions of dollars of more funding are being lined up, the National Academy of Sciences continues to have concerns over the lack of climate-change planning being factored into what is viewed as the world model for large-scale ecosystem restoration.
