For more than eight years, The Invading Sea has brought attention to\u00a0the growing impacts of climate change in Florida and potential solutions.\u00a0<\/p>\n

An innovative partnership among the editorial boards of South Florida\u2019s largest newspapers founded The Invading Sea<\/a> in 2018. They put aside competitive interests to share climate-related opinion pieces with each other, which were also posted on this website. The goal was\u00a0raising awareness about what an initial editorial<\/a> deemed to be the defining issue of the 21st century in South Florida: sea-level rise.<\/p>\n

The partnership eventually grew to include 27 newspapers across Florida<\/a>. The Invading Sea\u2019s website has republished climate-related columns that first ran in these papers and also published original opinion pieces, distributing all of this content throughout the network to amplify its reach. As the collaborative expanded, so did the issues of focus, including other environmental challenges facing Florida along with climate impacts across the state and world such as rising temperatures and extreme storms.\u00a0<\/p>\n

From March 2023 to June 2026, Florida Atlantic University hosted The Invading Sea. The website further increased its work, publishing more original commentary, news articles and information on public opinion polling<\/a>. Multimedia content was produced, including a series of short videos<\/a> that explain scientific topics with the help of digital animation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Invading Sea is now working to secure a new home to build on these efforts. Our website will be on hiatus during this period, remaining live but not posting new content. We are not accepting submissions during this time but can be reached at theinvadingseafl@gmail.com<\/a> on other matters.<\/p>\n

We will publish an update here when we resume operations. Thank you for your readership and support.<\/p>\n
