In order to protect the Everglades for future generations, Florida must continue to develop large environmental restoration projects. With the use of the federal government funding, CERP is still being funded on a 50-50 partnership with the state and federal government. However, research must still be done on how to adequately restore the bodies of water within the Everglades. Two key features that must be kept within the restoration projects are water quality and water flow. With the current preservation efforts, the Everglades will most likely be able to sustain itself for many more years. However, with the large amount of impact from human activity, the Everglades will never be able to return back into its original state.
