Summary
Coastal marshes are vanishing faster than they can adapt to rising seas, with over 30% already lost since the 1950s and more projected to disappear by 2050. Scientists are fighting back at Scotch Bonnet Island by artificially raising marsh beds with dredged sediment—buying these vital ecosystems decades of life. These wetlands aren’t just habitats for endangered species; they’re natural flood barriers, water filters, and carbon sinks that protect communities and support fisheries. While sea level rise is accelerating, restoration efforts like this offer hope that nature’s decline doesn’t have to be irreversible.
