The wetlands of South Louisiana are a fragile ecosystem that has faced enormous threats and abuse. From the ongoing crisis of coastal erosion to severe hurricanes and oil spills, Louisiana's coastal areas and the people that inhabit them are under many threats. The oil spill of 2010 has hopefully helped us to realize the extraordinary need for us to focus on the restoration of our coast as well as the need for commercial and industrial interests in our area to act responsibly.
