World-famous Miami Beach welcomes millions of visitors each year to its white, sandy beaches, turquoise waters and vibrant cultural scene. Known for its colorful art deco and MiMo architecture, the 7.2-square-mile island offers some of the finest dining and hotel experiences anywhere along with a beautiful oceanfront promenade that connects South Beach to North Beach. Steps away from the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay, Miami Beach is also at the forefront of identifying workable solutions to meet the challenge of sea level rise.

City and MAYOR GELBER have delivered and deserve a round of applause for putting this summit together and accommodating this first class organization. The weather, plenary sessions and everything was absolutely flawless
We have fecal matter in our waterways thanks to the inaction of MB elected leaders. I hope that Speaker Pelosi and the EPA Administrator can stop by Parkview Isle to see and smell the city’s leaky sewage system.
