5th NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COASTAL AND ESTUARINE HABITAT RESTORATION Galveston Island Convention Center, Galveston Island, Texas November 13-17, 2010 "Preparing for Climate Change: Science, Practice, and Policy" JOIN US for our 5th National Conference on Coastal and Estuarine Habitat Restoration on Galveston Island, Texas, November 13-17, 2010. RAE's national conference brings together the best and the brightest in the coastal habitat restoration community—diverse stakeholders from across the country, including top representatives from federal, state, and local governments; corporations and businesses; non-profits; grassroots organizations; tribal associations; and education—all united in the search for solutions to the needs of our coastal ecosystems. We expect more than 1,000 attendees, 150 exhibitors, 160 poster presentations, and 400 presenters in 80-plus, high-level sessions dealing with the best and newest approaches to coastal habitat preservation and restoration. Our 2010 conference focus, Preparing for Climate Change, while a concern for all coastal regions, has particular resonance for coastal Texas and Galveston, still recovering from the damage inflicted by Hurricane Ike in 2008. RAE is committed to helping Galveston recover from the environmental and economic damage caused by Ike. Through our conference, we will work to restore resiliency to Galveston's shoreline through sea- and marsh-grass planting projects; stimulate the local economy through the business generated during our five-day conference; push Galveston's ongoing restoration needs to national attention through our press work and through the attendance of senior federal officials; and increase the direction and momentum of new resources to aid the Galveston area. All conference proceedings will be held at the state-of-the-art Galveston Island Convention Center, 5600 Seawall Blvd., Galveston, Texas. Want to know more? Sign up here for Conference Updates.
