    “We must begin to come to terms with the reality that we can’t save the coastline as it currently exists. We need to prioritize natural adaptation, but planned abandonment should be considered as well. Rather than build ever higher walls and rip rap monuments, we should be developing strategies for moving the human footprint away from the shore—while also looking for ways to restore wetlands, add trees along shorelines, diversify urban landscapes and encourage the growth of wave-attenuating marsh grasses.”
