In this episode, we sit down with Mario Campo, a wetland ecologist with a master's degree in wetland ecology, to explore one of the most urgent enviromental challenges facing the U.S. - coastal erosion in Louisiana. Mario breaks down the science behind wetland loss, what's driving the rapid changes along the Gulf Coast, and how communities and ecosystems are being affected.

We also cover restoration strategies being used to combat erosion, the importance of wetlands in protecting against hurricanes, and what the future might look like for Louisiana's fragile coast. 

Whether you're passionate about the environment, curious about climate adaptation, or just love a good story about science and survival, this episode is one you won't want to miss.
