In the political sense of the word, it seems like we’re a long way from seeing Florida as a blue state. Trump won the state in 2020 by only 3 points, but the overall feeling in the Sunshine State is heavily in favor of governor Ron DeSantis and his anti-woke platform.
The meme at left, however, uses the word “blue” in a different sense, i.e., blue as in the color of the ocean. As the seas rise due to global warming, each of the states that border an ocean will lose land mass, but none as dramatically than Florida, with its vast regions that are just a few feet above the sea levels that have remained stable for millions of years.
