The Alliance recently worked with @cbssaturday to showcase innovative coastal resilience work in the area. This morning's segment highlights: @NSUFlorida in @DaniaBeachFL; the @mypompanobeach's Wahoo Bay, Kind Designs Living Seawalls. Film by @FloridaAtlantic of Wahoo Bay was also included in the story. These companies and organizations are part of the @MarineHubFL, which fosters collaboration among research, education, business, and economic development organizations to establish the region as a global leader in the ocean economy.

This year's hurricane season is leaving coastal communities reeling from catastrophic storm surge and flooding. Now, businesses and governments are focusing on innovations to protect their coasts while sustaining marine life. @BojorquezCBS visited Florida's National Coral Reef Institute to see the new defense systems helping communities.
