The Beach Erosion Battle
You can build a sea wall. You can dump tons of sand on the beach. But sooner or later, mother nature is going to do what she wants to do. As we wrap up the first full week of summer, we consider two Maryland beach communities that follow two very different approaches to battling beach erosion. First - we head to the Atlantic coast.
Along the Mid-Atlantic, one of the most popular beaches is Ocean City, Maryland. And the ocean IS the star attraction here. But for years, engineers have been at war with the sea - in a struggle to save the beach and the town. As Tamara Keith reports, that fight is only going to get tougher and more expensive if predictions of sea level rise from climate change become a reality.
