This post will show you what wetlands look like, what they are, the incredible biodiversity they contain, and how important wetlands are to the economy of the Gulf of Mexico and storm protection of South Louisiana, New Orleans in particular. Wetlands literally mean life or death for people, communities, tourism, and our fishing, shrimping and crabbing industries. Please be sure to watch the videos and visit the interactive map or you won’t be able to understand what I’m trying to explain. Words alone don’t do this environmental problem justice. You’ve got to see it.
