This episode is part of a series Mississippi By Nature that explores how nature based solutions are helping the river and its communities.
This episode features a ride to the mouth of the Mississippi River with Captain Richie Blink of Delta Discovery Tours, who shares how he has seen the river change over his decades on the water and how projects that use nature itself are beneficial. Then John Sabo, Director of the ByWater Institute at Tulane University in New Orleans, provides an overview of the health of the Mississippi and the role of nature based solutions in reducing flood threats and improving water quality.
The Mississippi By Nature series is supported by the Walton Family Foundation and outfitted by Patagonia.
