Cape May

In our Cape May project, the student thought it seemed curious how the government kept replenishing the same beaches over and over in the name of aesthetics.  Now the COE and Cape May are justifying it is as a safety issue.  But the next Nor'Easter may test that like the last ones.

Cape May point beaches will erode away by natural forces (made far worse by global warming driven more frequent and severe coastal storms) and what is left be inundated anyway due to sea level rise.

Gotta disagree with ya there Bill. I think that is just more of the merchant of chaos doom and gloom that follows the global warming lies, Cali falling into the ocean, etc. If you actually dated the area and the actual age- it is quite safe.
