In the final episode of Warren Coco series, Ramsey Russell and Coco shift gears and discuss Louisiana Gulf Coastal restoration. There have been significant habitat changes in Louisiana during time span that this 8-part series took place, not the least of which are the "sinking lands" in the Lower Mississippi River Delta, especially, and parts of the entire Gulf Coast. Disappearing at an estimated rate of a football size field of area per hour, advocacy groups have declared it a Vanishing Paradise. Of what value is this habitat resource to humanity and wildlife? Why is the land sinking, disappearing? What solutions exist for it's restoration? How does Coco use his understanding of these processes to protect his marsh area near Hackberry? What are government agencies doing - or not doing? Coco will likely be back in the future, but gives us plenty to think about until then.
