## Resource

New Orleans may be at a “point of no return” due to climate change, with rising seas and sinking land threatening to turn the historic city into a Venice-like water-surrounded metropolis. While the mayor dismisses the study as clickbait and locals vow to stay unless forced out, scientists confirm coastal wetlands have passed a tipping point. Communities are already scouting relocation options like Vicksburg and Natchez, preparing for a possible mass exodus — raising urgent questions about resilience, adaptation, and what it will take to keep the city alive.
