The federal government is now proposing to fundamentally rewire scientific research review for no good reason.
If I assert a figure, I show the receipts. Using the insurance industry's own flood models, a 2017 study found coastal wetlands prevented over $625 million in damage during Hurricane Sandy alone. Nationally they're valued around $23 billion a year in storm protection.
