Does land loss affect you?

I think it affects me because of where I am in Louisiana. I don’t want to be too close to the gulf if the land is disappearing within the next few years. So I would want to be more up north in Louisiana.

What are you doing about land loss?

I’m currently not doing anything, but I feel like raising more awareness and doing more research on the topic would be helpful.

How can information be passed down from generation to generation better?

I feel like it’s not passed down too well. I think the only reason I’m aware of it is because I’m a college student. There’s very little information about it on social media. More posts on social media and more awareness in the community would help.
