Suisun Marsh faces urgent threat from rising seas

Suisun Marsh, the largest tidal wetland in California, has already lost about 80% of its original area—and now rising sea levels are putting what’s left at serious risk. This marsh isn’t just a patch of wild land; it’s a crucial water source for millions and a haven for wildlife right in the Bay Area’s backyard. Scientists warn that if we don’t act fast, much of the remaining marsh could be underwater for good. Local restoration efforts have helped, but with sea levels rising faster than expected, the clock is ticking. How do you think we should protect places like this? #Science #SuisunMarsh #BayArea
