Even on a calm day, salt water laps over the road’s tenuous boundaries and splashes the concrete.

However, cutting emissions so that global temperatures increase by no more than 2 degrees Celsius (3.2 degrees Fahrenheit) could reduce those impacts by half, with about a quarter of the state’s natural vegetation affected.
