Summary
TIDAL FLOODING TALK | FEMA’s voluntary flood buyout program aims to reduce future disaster costs, yet often shifts flood risk to new homeowners rather than removing properties from harm’s way. Rice University sociologist Jim Elliott breaks down real migration patterns, persistent structural inequalities favoring wealthier areas, and the growing challenge of climate gentrification. Experience Tidal Flooding Talk every Tuesday at 7PM, America’s leading show on coastal flooding resilience. Hosted by the New Jersey Coastal Coalition, which formed after Superstorm Sandy in 2012, it empowers leaders with dynamic workshops. Visit njcoastalcoalition.com to learn more!
