One-hour documentary on Louisiana's vanishing coastline and the science of restoration. The show was produced by Washington, D.C.-based 62 Blue Productions. The documentary features a number of Louisiana scientists, researchers, and coastal-advocacy leaders, including several local figures. Parts of the documentary, a year in the making, were taped in Terrebonne and Lafourche parishes, which are suffering the state's worst wetlands loss. The how uses Louisiana as a focal point for understanding the complexity of both the land loss problem and solutions and the reaching impacts of restoration.
