where does nature and natural defenses fit into the design here? >> certainly the coastal environments can provide a buffer against storm surge and it's very critical for the long term sustainability for this constructed system. >> about 4 hours north in vicksburg mississippi, the army corp of engineers scientists are studying the exact impact coastal vegetation has on storm surge. jane mckee smith is a civil engineer. she's been studying the louisiana coastline since katrina. >> there's a lot of effort ongoing now to restore wetlands because that will help to dissipate not only the waves but it will also attenuate the surge but if we're going to include that into our designs we have to know how much. >> now as the waves are coming in explain to me what's happening? >> what we're seeing in this case is the waves coming in we see it traveling through...and it travels through the vegetation it's mobile ...so what we want to show is not only how the waves change as they go through but we want to have the dissipation as a function of distance, the heig

it is going to come from natural gas. we have had prolific discoveries of natural gas in australia. gorgon and wheatstone developments, the combined spending by us and our partners on those projects is about $85 billion. that reflects a significant amount of natural gas we have found in the area and the opportunity to develop it in proximity to the asian markets which it will serve just has created a very good investment opportunity for us. erik: both projects take gas pumped from undersea deposits, clean it, freeze it, and load it onto tankers bound for japan and elsewhere in asia. wheatstone is about 2/3 the size of gorgon. even if it does not feel any smaller. where are we and where are we going? >> we are at the north side. the second of two lng tanks we are building. we are going up top so you can get an overview of the entire operation we have going on here. so this is one of the two lng tanks that make up the side. this is where it will be cooled before it is moved to the loading jet out there. erik: what are we looking at? >> you are looking at the inside of an lng tank. 92

the commercial ended with the line, "you can't fool mother nature." today, many scientists would change that line to, "you can't fool with mother nature," meaning that we need to be aware if things we are doing are having a bad impact on our environment. and that brings us to the subject of climate change. as scott reports, it's a highly controversial issue. >> on one side are those who believe climate change is real. on the other side are those who doubt our climate is changing. not only is climate change real, but it's a clear and present danger caused by us humans. well, if the climate really is changing, humans aren't responsible. we believe climate change is a natural course of events. so, it's no biggie. during his speech at georgetown university, president obama made it clear which side of the issue he believes is the correct one. >> but i don't have much patience for anyone who denies that this challenge is real.
