a reminder of the size of the mississippi river watershed where eventually all that water flows through south louisiana. because of this historic drought, the water supply for a million people including the city of new orleans is threatened from saltwater intrusion

So many in climate movement use the right words & falter when it comes time to walk the walk. The best organizers learn to accept critical feedback, change behavior, and put their money where their mouth is. There’s no time to mess around- fate of the world hangs in the balance!
