A 7.36-km seawall in Chellanam is bringing relief to coastal families long affected by sea erosion. The project, inaugurated by CM Pinarayi Vijayan, comes after years of struggle by residents demanding protection for their homes. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/multimedia/videos/chellanam-seawall-relief-to-coastal-families-sh652t9z?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #Chellanam #KeralaCoast #SeaErosion #CoastalProtection

The Watchtower and Seaside Blooms
The lifeguard tower at the end of the main section of the beach at Youghal. The beach does continue on, but the sand was green with algae and it was obvious it’s not used by humans much.
I love the matching colours in this photo. I spent a good few minutes kneeling in damp sand and dirt trying to get this photo.

Louisiana cancels $3 billion coastal restoration project funded by oil spill settlement
“It is going to result in one of the largest setbacks for our coast and the protection of our communities in decades,” Graves said. “I don’t know what chiropractor or palm reader they got advice from on this, but — baffling that someone thought this was a good idea.”

The Houston government thinks we can use an app to ward off storm damage and sea level rise individually. We can’t.
Also: Homeless camp evictions; AG on Liberals

Seagrass and soil animals determine the quality of natural #coastalprotection.
Jaco de Smit improved a research method to conduct realistic experiments in the sea. In doing so, he discovered that offshore seagrass🌱 is surprisingly resilient to storms and that soil-dwelling crustaceans🦀 make the soil less stable.
On Friday 17 March, De Smit defends his thesis at @utrechtuniversity
