To utilize South Florida’s extensive canal infrastructure in order to transport and distribute recycled
waste down into the Everglades. In turn, this process will build land mass, supply fresh water, and
capture carbon. The building of landmass, will help mitigate sea level rise as well as transform the
Everglades existing ecology. This transformation will generate a new kind of landscape across the
Everglades, the exact outcomes can only be a speculation, but the potential for new life forms and the
emergence of productive biodiversity is critical to consider at this age of environmental degradation and
uncertainty.
