Paving Paradise

Florida's Vanishing Wetlands and the Failure of No Net Loss
Langbeschreibung
Florida possesses more wetlands than any other state except Alaska, yet since 1990 more than 84,000 acres have been lost to development, despite presidential pledges to protect them. This book explains how taxpayers who think they're paying for wetland protection have been stuck with a program that creates the illusion of environmental protection.
Craig Pittman, a Florida native, is a reporter for the St. Petersburg Times, and Matthew Waite, who hails from Nebraska, is the Times's news technologist. Their reporting on wetlands has twice earned the top investigative reporting prize in the nation from the Society of Environmental Journalists as well as the Waldo Proffit Award for Excellence in Environmental Journalism in Florida.
