Will DeSantis hire another Florida climate change czar?
In this mention
The article examines Florida's climate leadership gap following the departure of Chief Resilience Officer Julia Nesheiwat in February 2020. Environmental advocates, including Susan Glickman of the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, express concern that the unfilled position signals a lack of commitment to addressing climate change and sea level rise in the state.
There was enormous hope in the room. There was no soft-pedaling at that time. When we had a dedicated chief resilience officer, it felt like someone was waking up every day to pay attention to that.
