[I used to shore dive in the Straits Of Juan de Fucca, Washington State side, and Crescent Lake - so I chose that area as a CoNED example to explore; good memories, including of the 18 Wheeler Burger with pie & coffee in Joyce, WA on drizzly days]

A daily challenge to chain words together @ https://wordwallgame.com
BellingenNSW"Sea level rise (SLR)
poses a prominent challenge to current and future generations, impacting the habitability of coastlines, trade routes, and major infrastructure systems near the ocean."
"Our results highlight geographic variability in exposure and demonstrate the benefits that low-emissions pathways imply for preserving built environments."
