Eroding Edges Stories
The edges of our country are eroding, raising difficult questions about adaptation, relocation, and what it means to be an American experiencing climate change today. To connect the shared experiences of Americans facing these dramatic transformations, the National Trust partnered with Victoria Herrmann, a National Geographic Explorer, as she traveled around the U.S. and its territories interviewing communities directly affected by shoreline erosion and climate change.
