Love all the comments from those who aren't affected by the diversion. The main problem with S Louisiana is erosion happening because of diversion we should let nature be nature and adjust our lives. If so, coast would be much much more sound and extended

The real, honest, no kidding answer is to remove all the levees on the MS river south of a certain point, maybe say Alliance on the west bank and Carlisle on the east bank. You would basically have to buy out everyone south of that point.

Plus many of the same oystermen and fishermen who don't want the diversion also don't want to be forced to move. And that's the problem, there is no reasonable acceptable alternative to them.
