    This is not a big deal. It's normal. Here on Vancouver island Canada the sand disappeared a long time ago. We don't try to replace it for tourists or the rich. It's natural. We wear water shoes to protect our feet from the stones, rocks and barnacles. Absolutely natural for beaches to lose the sand.

      And it will be the end of our days when it decides enough is enough.

    The two hurricanes did a trick to worsen the Florida coastline, especially the east coast of Florida. I wouldn’t buy any houses on the coast right now.

    The more of Florida that sinks into the ocean, the better off we are. I 🤣

    Serious question: So if the earth is billions of years old, or even millions for that matter... and it takes just a few years for erosion at beaches to happen like this... then why (after billions of years) hasn't the entire earth been covered in water by now? Numbers don't seem to add up.

      Shorelines March ahead and recede cyclically after several years of interval and those cycles have been going on for millions of years.

      One coastline loses mass, and another gains it. It shifts, it does not just disappear.

    Thank Rick "no climate change" Scot for not taking reality into account for the future of the sunshine state

    If you pave the beaches then the sand can't get away, duh. Problem solved.

    There is plenty of sand in the ocean. Get working.

      That has ecological consequences to dredging sand from the ocean.

      That does not solve the problem, it just moves it somewhere else. Also destroys marine habitats.
