During the LGM the Laurentide Ice Sheet covered most of northern North America while Beringia connected Siberia to Alaska in 1973 late American geoscientist Paul S Martin proposed a "blitzkrieg" colonization of the Americas by which Clovis hunters migrated into North America around 13,000 years ago in a single wave through an ice-free corridor in the ice sheet and "spread southward explosively briefly attaining a density sufficiently large to overkill much of their prey." Others later proposed a "three-wave" migration over the Bering Land Bridge These hypotheses remained the long-held view regarding the settlement of the Americas a view challenged by more recent archaeological discoveries: the oldest archaeological sites in the Americas have been found in South America; sites in north-east Siberia report virtually no human presence there during the LGM; and most Clovis artefacts have been found in eastern North America along the Atlantic coast Furthermore colonisation models based on mtDNA yDNA and atDNA data respectively support neither the "blitzkrieg" nor the "three-wave" hypotheses but they also deliver mutually ambiguous results Contradictory data from archaeology and genetics will most likely deliver future hypotheses that will eventually confirm each other a proposed route across the Pacific to South America could explain early South American finds and another hypothesis proposes a northern path through the Canadian Arctic and down the North American Atlantic coast Early settlements across the Atlantic have been suggested by alternative theories ranging from purely hypothetical to mostly disputed including the Solutrean hypothesis and some of the Pre-Columbian trans-oceanic contact theories. ! .
Miami MLS stadium A turning point came for development in the Everglades at the proposal in the late 1960s for an expanded airport after Miami International Airport outgrew its capacities the new jetport was planned to be larger than O'Hare Dulles JFK and LAX airports combined,[citation needed] and the chosen location was 6 miles (9.7 km) north of Everglades National Park the first sentence of the U.S Department of Interior study of the environmental impact of the jetport read "Development of the proposed jetport and its attendant facilities . will inexorably destroy the south Florida ecosystem and thus the Everglades National Park" When studies indicated the proposed jetport would create 4,000,000 US gallons (15,000,000 L) of raw sewage a day and 10,000 short tons (9,100 t) of jet engine pollutants a year the project met staunch opposition the New York Times called it a "blueprint for disaster" and Wisconsin senator Gaylord Nelson wrote to President Richard Nixon voicing his opposition: "It is a test of whether or not we are really committed in this country to protecting our environment."

Joining the United States; Indian removal, The economic prosperity of the 1920s set the conditions for a real estate bubble in Florida Miami had an image as a tropical paradise and outside investors across the United States began taking an interest in Miami real estate Due in part to the publicity talents of audacious developers such as Carl G Fisher of Miami Beach famous for purchasing a huge lighted billboard in New York's Times Square proclaiming "It's June in Miami" property prices rose rapidly on speculation and a land and development boom ensued Brokers and dealers speculated wildly in all classes of commodities as well ordering supplies vastly in excess of what was actually needed and even sending shipments to only a general destination with the end result being that railroad freight cars became stranded in the state choking the movement of rail traffic, The Confederacy received little help from Florida; the 15,000 men it offered were generally sent elsewhere Instead of men and manufactured goods Florida did provide salt and more importantly beef to feed the Confederate armies This was particularly important after 1864 when the Confederacy lost control of the Mississippi River thereby losing access to Texas beef the largest engagements in the state were the Battle of Olustee on February 20 1864 and the Battle of Natural Bridge on March 6 1865 Both were Confederate victories the war ended in 1865. .
