Smith Island's Inspiring Story of Adaptation to Climate Change As the effects of climate change become increasingly evident, few communities exemplify the spirit of resilience more profoundly than the residents of Smith Island, located off the coast of Maryland.

Situated at the heart of the Chesapeake Bay, this small, tight-knit island has endured the relentless onslaught of rising sea levels and intensifying storms, yet its people have refused to be defeated.

The island's history is a testament to the human capacity for adaptation.
