Sarasota News Leader November 1, 2013 Page 74 The Science and Environment Council of Southwest Florida and The Rising Seas Initiative, the release points out. David Shafer, founder of the Rising Seas Initiative and executive director of the Science and Environment Council of Southwest Florida, says the film is a "wake-up call for Southwest Florida, considering how much of our population and tax base is on the coast," the release adds. "Shored Up began as an examination of conflicts over beach renourishment programs along the Jersey Shore," the release continues. "As Kalina researched and filmed, it expanded into an exploration of the political conflicts and personal stakes of communities along the shore, with insights from scientists, politicians and residents, and [it] exposed major shortcomings in coastal management and the immediate need for change." % A satellite photo shows Hurricane Sandy over a wide swath of the East Coast of the United States on Oct. 30, 2012.
