Dredging is something that is rarely talked about but can have a huge effect on the environment. It is a common practice in South Florida, for the purpose of renourishing beaches in an effort to keep the tourism economy strong.

Take a listen to hear about the pros, cons, and how you can make an effort in helping the environment yourself.
