This Georgia Island Is Disappearing—And It's Not Climate Change. Sapelo Island is disappearing—but not for the reason you think. This Georgia barrier island is home to one of the last Gullah Geechee communities, descendants of enslaved West Africans who've held this land for generations. While sea levels rise, the real threat isn't the ocean—it's property taxes driven by luxury development.
