IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Puerto Rico Program - Starting in mid-2021, the Rising Seas Institute has partnered with the Puerto Rico Science Technology and Research Trust, a 501c3 to create a program, the Caribbean Center for Rising Seas, effectively as a joint venture. The goal is to help Puerto Rico and the Caribbean adapt and thrive in the new era of increasing flood risk from storms, tides, and sea level rise. The program will establish Puerto Rico's leadership as a center of excellence and innovation, serving as a model on how to prepare for the challenges ahead.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Public Lectures and media interviews - The Founders of the Rising Seas Institute, John Englander and Robert W. Corell, have given more than a hundred presentations and interviews over the last decade explaining the science of rising sea level and the need to plan better for adaptation. The New York Times published a major article about climate change by Bret Stephens on October 30th, 2022, and credited the work of the Rising Seas Institute. Other media interviews have included The Discovery Channel, NPR, Fox Business Channel, and China TV, as examples. One particular lecture in London at the prestigious Royal Institution in February 2019, "Sea level rise can no longer be stopped; what next?" has been watched on YouTube by well over three hundred and sixty thousand people globally.
