Wetlands Radio Show
hosted by Eve Abrams
The media is full of stories about the coastal land loss crisis in Louisiana, the dire predictions of climate change and sea level rise, and polarizing accounts of controversial projects, but rarely has the story of coastal restoration been told so clearly and so completely, from the very beginning to the very present. Louisiana is making tremendous strides piecing our ragged shoreline back together little by little, and is now seen as a global leader in coastal restoration planning and engineering. Join award-winning radio producer Eve Abrams for this 12-part series of short audio episodes, funded by BTNEP and sponsored by WWNO, as she travels the coast, chronicling Louisiana’s journey from shortsighted exploitation to thoughtful restoration of the critical natural resources that make our coast so unique.
