How can land be restored on the Louisiana coast? The answer lies in harnessing the natural force of the Mississippi River. By allowing the river to overflow into designated areas and deposit sediment, lost land can be rebuilt. The Mid-Barataria Sediment Diversion is a massive engineering project that utilizes this natural solution, tapping into the river's power to create sustainable coastal landscapes.
