AllOnGeorgia April 23, 2021 An annual report measuring the health of coastal Georgia’s ecosystem released today shows a slight decline from last year in overall scores, but most indicator trends remain positive. The Coastal Georgia Ecosystem Report Card scored the state’s coastal environment at a “B+”, or 77 percent, a three-point decrease from last year, according to the Coastal Resources Division (CRD) of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR), which commissions the report. “While we’re always striving to improve our scores, this slight decrease does not represent a concern at this point in time,” said Jan Mackinnon, a CRD biologist who oversaw the report. “Slight changes in environmental factors, including weather patterns, wildlife migration, and data collection can lead to different scores each year. The report still ranks Georgia’s coast in moderately good health, and we’re confident in the long-term trends.”
