When will the Everglades Restoration be done? NEVER!

A very simple question was asked lately of an authority
on Everglades Restoration. 
When will the Everglades restoration be done? 

The answer was simple...never. 



The Everglades will never, ever look the way it did decades ago because it simply can't happen. If we all moved out of the state of Florida, there's a chance that it may revert back to what it used to be, but as long as we're all living here, it will never be what it used to be. It simply can't.




 The Everglades have adapted to the changes we forced it to make.  It is now our responsibility to restore what we can and adapt the best way we know how to rehabilitate the River of Grass, and the habitat of many of nature's endangered species.
Adaptive management and sustainability- words to live by.

It's sad that we, as a race, don't stop to think how we are impacting nature. It's the same with wildlife. People can't understand why once remotely seen animals are showing up in their backyard. Simple. Because we are infringing on their habitats. I applaud your efforts and involvement.
