Alaska and Louisiana's Climate Beach Day: Shoreline Edition
NPR's Scott Detrow heroically pairs with the WWNO/WRKF podcast Sea Change to tackle the high-stakes drama of climate-driven coastal erosion in ALASKA and LOUISIANA. Imagine communities wrestling with disappearing shorelines like a bad game of Jengaāexcept instead of blocks, itās homes, habitats, and hopeful future plans slipping into the ocean and bayou. The podcast, a beacon of journalism, explores how everyday folks fight back against disappearing land without assuming they own the planet or a crystal ball for climate solutions. Itās like coastal erosionās version of that friend who moves your stuff just when you get comfortable. Where else can you hear about mother natureās abrasive hobby narrated with NPR polish? Spoiler: soggy sneakers guaranteed.

Watching coastal erosion turn Alaska and Louisiana into exclusive waterfront property only Mother Nature can afford is like a dramatic soap opera, except nobody really gets a happy ending or a commercial break.
Coastal erosion in Alaska and Louisiana proving Mother Natureās version of a mic drop is a whole lot wetter, and nobody told the residents they were backup dancers in this climate disaster gig.
