please. >> we do have a graphic in the presentation on the sea level riess. one of the things to start with, this ground, because it is landfill is different than others. the existing grade is approximately on average about 10 feet higher than existing high tide. by its nature it is already well above most areas which are going to be safe sea level rise. if you can put the diagram up, what we've done -- we don't have an issue with any of the current sea level rise projections. what we have done is in order to help with the open space and the wetlands, is try to give create a series of wetlands so those wet land have a place to retreat and continue to thrive. so the landscape itself is resilient. >> commissioner richards: thank you very much. we have a large parcel of land just like driving down a street and have 100-foot parcel. this one is large. it's acres and acres big. somebody bought it. it's sitting there now contaminated. we have a definite housing shortage. i will trade height and density for more open space. it's a win-win for the community and city

sea levels rising globally many other campuses cities with a similar friends. so right now we're standing on the north jakarta sea well. on my right hand side is the java sea and on my left hand side about two meters lower is north jakarta is the land of jakarta and this part of jakarta subsided has sunk so much that if i stand on the other side of the seawall i'm exactly two meters tall and i level with the boats the holes of the boat on the other side. if this year were to break and it's already leaving us in a few spots about forty percent of jakarta would be flooded to a depth of one or two metres it's quite a bit hairy situation. in fifteen years eighty percent of jakarta's northern part of london. jakarta is one of the fastest sinking cities in the walls and researchers say that if it's left unchecked parts of it could be fully submerged by twenty fifty the sporting megacity is home to more than ten million people right now it is sinking at an average rate of one point five centimeters a year and it was half of its area sits below sea level so what is maki

we have sea level rise. a lot of uncertainty associated with seismic risk. we have heard about the heavily used waterfront, it was really enlightening to hear how complicated it is to manage the waterfront and how all those pieces are going to tie into what the corps does along with the port and city. what we will learn from the study is, we like to bring everyone to the table. we will have stakeholder involvement and ultimately our feasibility report will recommend a federal investment that may or may not be part of the local plan, if the locals prefer a separate plan bigger, different than what the corps would based on our own theories and guidance, that could be done as well and recommended for construction with some exemption requests to process. >> i think we are just trying to figure out how to get our arms tactically around what this challenge is for us over time. we know it's big and will take a lot of time. some numbers have been thrown out but still a moving target for us. i'm just hoping each study we do is helping us get more form, more substance

miami airport is just one metre. five metres above sea level. miami airport isjust one metre. in the furtherfuture, even moderate estimates of climate change will mean the sea will swell in much of this area by the year 2100. so is probably no surprise that some of the most advanced research in the world is going on here the university of miami. —— hurricane research. this is a hurricane simulator, it is a 23 metre long glass tank filled with water and connected to an enormous fan, which means it can generate the strongest winds over water anywhere in the world. at there, they can simulate a category five hurricane. —— up there. a 1500 horsepower motor drives 65 metre per second winds, whipping up spray and smashing waves into what ever they put in the tank. the senses in the tank measure how those waves behave and what they do the florida's buildings, because it is not so much the winds as the storm surge, the water driven inland by the storm which causes so much destruction and loss of life. in a land falling hurricane, about two metres high floodwater is accompanied with lar

ingredients intending to carry on the way they had in france but here we are painfully aware to be under sea level the matter where you are how will you grow a carrot? you can't. not even a place to dig a grave because the water table is so high so that is how i believe carrots came out and the pepper went in. so that is the crux of the flavor the basis of everything is the dark free goal with tan celery bell pepper and onion added it also would have tomato cajun food tends to be brown creole food is often tomato -based love the color the flavor and of course nothing is as delicious as a creepy old tomato in season. that is an important element. so this is one of the great culinary gems, this is the continuously operated restaurant in new orleans dating back to 1856. only three owners but the traditions have remained constant and authentic. gumbo is probably the most emblematic dish. sometimes the word is used to describe who we are as a people. a gumbo is a very personal thing. here we have a very typical gumbo that means some of the beautiful thickening comes not just from the roux that gives th
