Everglades Incident Report

The two non-governmental stakeholders are considered by the National Park Service, to have a intimate relationship with the land. They are the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians: these are members of the Native Indian Tribes that inhabited the area, long before land development). And the second group, the Gladesmen: “husbands and sons who built small homes in the everglades (National Park Service, August 01, 2016). Each of the groups have been impacted differently, but both agree the federal government has been unable to maintain the mass land development done by prior generation.

Over a time period of many years, the Florida Everglades have been harmed.This is due not only to the fact that the Everglades were almost entirely drained, but also the fact that extremely hazardous chemicals are being put into the Everglades. However many organizations are helping the Everglades get their water quality and pollution under control.

Maintaining ecological diversity is necessary for the survival of a biological community. In the United States, American citizens are on the verge of irrevocably damaging one of the country's most unique and diverse treasures - the Florida Everglades. This national park is now the only remaining patch of a river that used to span 120 miles from Lake Okeechobee to the Florida Bay. Dikes and levees created by the Army Corps of Engineers in the late 1940's drained this river to reduce flooding and increase useable water for the development of the region. This major diversion of water lead to a trickle down effect causing the continual decline of the environmental state of the Everglades. Since then, debates over the

The Everglades is a subtropical wilderness with hardwood hammocks, mangrove forests, along with grass marshes. The Florida Everglades used to be a home for many endangered species, that was until the sudden changes in the environment. The Everglades are facing water-related issues, such as its problems with the water supply. There are issues facing recent attempts to improve the water supply, and some history on the Everglades.

The Florida Everglades provides water to roughly 7 million people in Florida. There is on going issues with the Everglades water supply; for instance, it’s history,and the delayed problems are just two. There has been many acts to save it, and now we just can’t give up.

The plan had stalled due to partisan conflicts and various stakeholders not agreeing to any potential plan. The stakeholders agreed to a policy and proceed to initiate restoration of the Everglades. This was possible only through the hard work of our agencies’ scientists, and through input from Florida’s farmers and environmental groups (Scott, 2013). Agreement on the objectives was not obtained, but the policy itself was agreed upon. “It provides what [environmental groups] wanted, which is a stable source of funding. And it creates certainty for us, “said Gaston Cantens, vice president for sugar producer Florida Crystals. “We reached a level of consensus” (Reid,

The Everglades was once a lush, green wilderness home to many endangered species. Now it is a drained swampland with half of its wildlife wiped out. One change made a big impact on this wetland. Many people are working hard to save the Everglades before it’s too late.

The Everglades is a vast region that stretches from the Kissimmee River to Lake Okeechobee and is filled with a unique and world-famous ecosystem that is exclusive to the rest of the world. It is located in southern Florida and takes up 1.5 million of the land. While there are many diverse species, there are around 500 human inhabitants. This region is one of the largest wetlands in the US and the only existing Everglades in the entire world. Because of this and other pressing factors, about one-fifth of the Everglades are protected by the Everglades National Park. The fact that the Everglades are one of kind also means that anything that happens not only affects itself locally, but also nationally and globally. And now, there are many problems

The Everglades On May 30, 1934, an Act was passed, which authorized a park to be created through public donations. Thirteen years later, through a combination of private, state and federal lands, an expansive wetland was hopefully immortalized as a national park. Everglades was the first national park that was preserved primarily for its biota, in lieu of scenic or historic values. Shortly after moving to Miami in 1925, Ernest F. Coe, made the Everglades Park project his life work.

The topic of this research paper will be the tree island communities in the Florida Everglades and the different conditions that affect them. While conducting preliminary research on the topic, my hypothesis is that the effect of flooding shortly after a fire will have a positive effect on the tree islands. I believe that the flooding will bring in other resources that have been carried with the current and provide the community with enough resources for healthy growth following the fire. I believe the communities could benefit from have a source of water, instead of having more droughts after the fire.

Dear Florida National fish and wildlife service, I am a big fan of your work and all you do for the environment. I love what you guys do, but lately you guys have been making me feel upset and disgusted, in the way you allow those herpetologists and snake hunters to handle and kill the snakes of the Everglades. It’s plain out wrong the way they search and kill those innocent Burmese pythons. It’s not their fault that there in the Everglades, its mankind who place them there in the first place, and now they’re getting punished for it. Theo’s back hill snake haters running around with guns, killing theses snakes, I bet they don’t even know how good they are to the environment.

Florida's Everglades is the largest subtropical wetland ecosystem in North America. That’s a big deal. Just imagine how many animals and plants must live there. Even how much water and land that must take up to build a home for all these creatures. I mean this is home to about 67 threatened endangered species, and these species are about to lose their home. Wouldn’t you want your home to be saved? Florida's Everglades holds so much value, it holds to numerous plants and animals, it has a balanced ecosystem with biodiversity, and it doesn't just benefit wildlife, it benefits humans also. Who knew just one wetland had so much value.
