OK, then why does this grass coming back not show up in 2008 pics? Look at that east bank of Calcasieu Lake in the 2008 photo, look at that lost marsh, I can post a Google Earth 2013 pic and you can see it there too

I sent you a link where you can do this yourself and click the layers on and off and see different years flash right before your eyes, you don't have to believe me

Click on this link then download that map on the right, it will show you every single bit of data regarding coastal land loss

Check out this map and remember that red is bad
