<span style="font-size:12.0pt">1. The Washington Post’s multimedia story Gone in a Generation tells stories of change in four US regions: the upper Midwest for forest changes, North Carolina for flooding, California for forest fires, and upper New England for
changes in fisheries. The presentation takes about twenty minutes, and though you could hurry through it you probably won’t.

about prefab homes, is a dream aid. <span style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193); text-decoration: underline">

<span style="font-size:12.0pt">I know we have architects and city planners on the list. Perhaps they can suggest articles in their areas. I anticipate that relocation will be a growing preoccupation. For example, six million people south of FL’s Lake Okeechobee
are losing their drainage and their water supply. If you live in the US, some of them will be coming someplace near you, along with some of the rest of the coastal population. Then there are droughts, floods, and fires, all leading to relocations. We need
to get busy planning some new communities which are places we would want to live.</span></p>
