What is The Octopus in the Parking Garage : A Call for Climate Resilience about?
<p><b>Winner, 2023 Choice Outstanding Academic Title</b><br><br>One morning in Miami Beach, an unexpected guest showed up in a luxury condominium complex’s parking garage: an octopus. The image quickly went viral. But the octopus—and the combination of infrastructure quirks and climate impacts that left it stranded—is more than a funny meme. It’s a potent symbol of the disruptions that a changing climate has already brought to our doorsteps and the ways we will have to adjust.<br><br>Rob Verchic
