Louisiana's coastal land loss is most evident from above, and will be hastened by increasing rates of sea level rise caused by climate change.

Have you ever read a story about climate change, and by the end of the article thought, ”Great, now what?” Or maybe, “What do I do with that information? I have questions!”

The Coastal Desk of WWNO and WRKF wants to answer your questions about living with climate change for an upcoming project.

Maybe you want to know if the levees around New Orleans will hold in the next big storm, how warming oceans will affect seafood in the Gulf of Mexico, or how to talk to kids about climate change. 

We’ll use your questions as a starting point for our reporting, and hopefully come back to you with tangible answers. 

What do you want to know? Send your questions to climate@wwno.org. Or, leave us a  message at (504) 264-2447.

Support for the Coastal Desk comes from the Greater New Orleans Foundation, the Walton Family Foundation, and local listeners.
