Does land loss affect you?

Yes. As a resident of South Louisiana, coastal land loss affects me in numerous ways. Economically, culturally, and ecologically. All of these are in play with coastal land loss.

What are you doing about land loss?

So I am a researcher at Nicholls State University and our lab is the coastal ecology lab. So one of the things we like to do is research at the coast, so we do a lot of projects down there that are aimed at conserving our coast. Not just the culture, but the species that live there and the ecosystems there. We also do a lot of educational outreach with the community on what’s going on.
