Dear spineless 67-year-old Louisiana GOP U.S. Sen. Bill Cassidy M.D.: Maybe your opponent is rightly concerned about your states disappearing coastline. Best, Retiring Guy

Catie Sampson reports HNOC:
By now, people in Louisiana are familiar with the state’s ongoing battle with coastal land loss. [Paging Dr. Swirl!"]  However, it remains a problem that’s out of sight, out of mind for most residents. Outside of the most vulnerable areas, it can be difficult to fathom the 2,000 square miles of land lost over the past century and how it’s happened—that is, until someone like Ben Depp offers a shift in perspective. 
HNOC’s exhibition Edge of Tomorrow: Aerial Views of Louisiana’s Changing Coastline by Ben Depp features 11 large-format photographs that illustrate the environmental effects of climate change, flood control systems, and the oil and gas industry in south Louisiana. Photographer Ben Depp achieves this dizzying perspective by navigating to remote sites in a handmade wooden sailboat and using a powered paraglider to capture his images of wetland sites from above. The resulting images show the juxtaposition of land and water in ways that equally abstract—and make plain—the fragility of Louisiana’s coast.

Kelsey Brugger reports for E&E News:
“This shocking evidence proves Liberal Julia Letlow would sell out Louisiana oil and gas for the cost of a plane ticket,” Cassidy campaign manager Katie Larkin said in a statement. “Progressive leader Letlow flew on climate change activists’ dime to a swanky UN conference about dumping Louisiana’s 346,000 oil and gas jobs overboard, and that makes it clear for voters who she is.” 
Letlow’s campaign fired back, saying the attack from Cassidy’s camp reeked of desperation. And they pointed to her record supporting Louisiana’s oil and gas industry — including opposing the Biden administration’s pause of new natural gas export terminals. [emphasis added]
