“Ports on the Frontline: Protecting Rhode Island’s Economy from Rising Seas”

Rhode Island’s ports are the beating heart of our coastal economy—moving cargo through Providence, importing cars and ship building at Quonset, and landing fresh seafood in Galilee. But as sea levels rise, these critical hubs face growing risks from flooding, storm surge, and infrastructure strain.

Join local leaders, businesses, port operators, ocean experts for a conversation about how Rhode Island can adapt its working waterfronts to a changing climate using science and technology – all while balancing economic growth, community resilience, and environmental stewardship.
