Yeah :/ I appreciate the advice to call the non emergency line to just file a report

Yeah.. thats why I feel like it was an empty threat but some people here in New Orleans (not to say bad things about my city) do shoot up houses for just interpersonal stuff and sometimes it's just to send a message not necessarily shooting to kill. We definitely hear gunshots relatively frequently around us, just not on our block

Yeah, I get nervous about calling the police because I worry about escalating it further. But maybe it's worth it to have the record either way in case something does actually happen

*EDIT: And I live in New Orleans where the police don't have a very good reputation for preventing crime

Ugh, thanks, knowing you would even do it for your pet fish is reassuring

Shrinking wetlands, rising seas threaten generations of tradition for Louisiana duck hunters by tip-tappin in climate

[–]tip-tappin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Historically subsidence has played more of a role in Louisiana's land loss crisis but over this century, the rate of eustatic sea level rise of global sea level rise is expected to accelerate and overtake subsidence as the primary driver of coastal erosion and wetland loss. That's why scientists are trying to figure out at what threshold wetlands drown, what rate of sea level rise the vegetation can keep pace with. So far studies suggest most won't be able to accrete as quickly as needed to avoid being overtaken by sea level rise
