It’s not news that flooding is a problem in Louisiana. The key bit here is the pace of change (in the wrong direction) and urgency with which adaptations are needed to bend the curve back:
…peer-reviewed research, projected trends and actual ground-based measurements show that if the causes of our landscape’s subsidence and sea level rise are not addressed in the next two decades, by 2067 much of the bottom third of Louisiana will be submerged by the Gulf of Mexico — or it will become so vulnerable to storm surge it will be unlivable.
