CHALLENGES & OPPORTUNITIES: RESTORING THE LOUISIANA COAST 

This second installment of the WYES series CHALLENGES & OPPORTUNITIES: RESTORING THE LOUISIANA COAST explores how efforts to restore and protect the state’s coastline range from the projects in the multimillion-dollar coastal master plan to volunteer efforts to help bring back our coastal forests.
Also featured in the episode are a growing local recycling business turning glass into sand to use in coastal rebuilding projects and a state coastal advocacy group working with local restaurants to reuse oyster shells to build reefs that combat storm surge.
