Finding Common Ground: A Louisiana Documentary - Link

[Gilbert Rochon]

For those of you who have not yet had an opportunity to view this documentary, the link is below.  "Finding Common Ground is a recently released documentary exploring "traditional ecological knowledge" and its importance in planning for coastal restoration in Louisiana's Mississippi River Delta. Award-winning documentary producer Kevin McCaffrey teamed up with Dr. Robert Thomas, Director of Loyola University's Center for Environmental Communication, to produce this rich and informative first-hand look at the existential crisis unfolding in Louisiana's disappearing wetlands." (Prime Media) I found it to be an insightful validation of citizen science with a combination of interviews with fishermen, scientists, community advocates, policy makers & the Archbishop of New Orleans and images captured by drone-mounted and boat-mounted video. - Gilbert
