Human Consumption: Virgin Lumber, Natural Gas, Crude Oil, Fertile Grassland and undeveloped acreage for building. Medicinal Discovery: As with the ever shrinking Rain Forrest, there is a plethora of yet unknown botanical species. Like the Canadian Hemlock being a basis for cancer treatments. The indigenous reptiles could provide antitoxin as well as the anticoagulant for stroke victims. The attributes of knowledge and cures are limitless. Flora and Fauna: Species that continue to be "discovered" provide an education into the survival of pre Ice Age Flora. Aquifer: As in the past with "sink holes" appearing and collapsing in residential area, the Everglades helps to support the catacomb of coral base Florida is built upon. Since the reduction and return of wetlands back to the Glades such incidents have been reduced.
