look at issues like why we sink in louisiana, and i also look at issues like how we rebuild coastal lasdscape. the barrier isla are one of thfirst lines of defense against a storm, right, so notice how this is now pretty much continuous. there's no channels in the middle of it. this is an example of a restored barrier island. see new orleans, so that's one of the major post-katrina levee, improvemeo the idea was to basically to wall off this areas to prevent a stoge from getting to the lower ninth ward. levees are sometimes built with eart and sometimes they' built with concrete, but t core point is that they are all al that protects an area from waves and rising waters from a storm. the biggest variable in this is sea level rise. if the seal level rise rates are at the low end of the spectrum of what people predict, ou could rebuild large areas of the landscape and provide flood protection for a lot of people. if rateshi are at th end, then i think a lot of areas will be lost, even with the state's best efforts. all right. well, welcome to cocodrie. the master plan needs a lot of input, and
