Um, Louisiana WAS a blue state for most of its history, and as recently as 1996. It elected its first GOP majority legislature less than 10 years ago and its first Republican US Senator less than 15 years ago. The current governor is a Democrat.
The state also isn't hurting for revenue. It has a ton of pet projects that aren't allowed to be cut and it has more public universities than Florida.
The majority of air pollution comes from Texas and river pollution comes from 30+ other states. No state government can stop that.
Investing in alternative energy would be colossally stupid for Louisiana. It's a direct competitor to oil and gas.
