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.
