re: Louisiana Coastal Erosion.

there is no going back to a 1900s coastline. We must reengineer it to actually build land or maintain what we have. This means calculated retreat and relocation of humans, their assets, and the places they are accustomed to harvesting resources. Louisiana's coastline has fluctuated for tens of thousands of years and the public perceives that it should be a static entity. Humans have lived along this coastline since before the pyramids were built and have constantly shifted and adapted.
