Sink or Swim

Summary The Louisiana wetlands are the bread basket of the Untied States as far as shellfish is concerned. But the rich bounty that the delta produced for as long as anyone can remember is seemingly doomed whether we act or not. As saltwater pushes in from the ocean, the ecosystem is threatened by high salinity, but the proposed restoration solutions are equally dreaded by the fisherman who fear too much freshwater will also destroy the habitat as they know it. Gleason, both a shrimper and oysterman, feels like there's no good answer. He is, however, preparing to adapt to a changing future. He is optimistic.
