Redzhina beautiful places

When you pray, pray that you don't feel unwanted in your most desired places.. pray that you don't witness your best moments becoming a far dream.. pray that your deepest fears don't become a reality.. pray you don't stop being a good person.. pray for inner peace.. pray for a beautiful soul.. pray for the strength needed to forgive yourself and others.. And above all, pray you can always find your way back after losing sight of what's important.

Everglades restoration’s goal is to restore a more natural southward flow of water from Lake Okeechobee to the Everglades and Florida Bay. Today, more than two-thirds of the freshwater that used to flow south into Florida Bay is being flushed to the coasts. This water is laden with “nutrients” (fertilizers and agricultural waste) that feed toxic blue-green algae and red tide causing environmental and economic harm to the St. Lucie and Caloosahatchee estuaries.

In the early 1900’s, the River of Grass’ natural southern flow of water from the Kissimmee River to Florida Bay was significantly altered to accommodate the agricultural industry. Unfortunately, the Everglades was drained and freshwater was redirected east and west to the coasts. This manmade environmental redesign resulted in significant harm that continues to hurt the ecosystem and the urban communities that rely on clean freshwater to flourish.

When subjected to drought, however, overdried areas of the Everglades catch fire, turning this enormous ecosystem in to a massive carbon emitter. Everglades restoration will keep the ecosystem hydrated during South Florida’s dry months, thereby protecting it against drought and wildfires. A healthy and wet Everglades will maximize the carbon sequestration capacity of the ecosystem.

Without the Everglades, life would not be sustainable in South Florida. That’s because the Everglades supplies most of the drinking water for the 9 million (and growing) residents of South Florida and countless visitors. For example, all the drinking water for Miami-Dade and Broward counties comes from the Biscayne Aquifer, which is continually replenished by the Everglades.

That depends. South Florida and America’s Everglades have what is known as a “tropical savanna” climate, meaning there are only two seasons – wet and dry.

The “wet” season, which coincides with hurricane season, lasts from April to November; the “dry” season, which is the best time to visit and see wading birds and other wildlife, is from December to March.

What most people think of as “America’s Everglades” is limited to Everglades National Park, 1.5 million acres of subtropical wilderness in South Florida. But the River of Grass is close to 3 million acres, double the size of the park, and it encompasses the park, three water conservation areas and Big Cypress National Preserve. The greater Everglades ecosystem is even larger and originally encompassed 6 million acres extending all the way from the Kissimmee River basin near Orlando, south to Florida Bay and the Florida Keys.
