To Benefit: Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana (CRCL). Several years ago I read a book titled Bayou Farewell that tells the story of the disappearing land all along the Louisiana coast, and chronicles the ongoing loss of wildlife, culture and industry. The bayous have lived in my imagination for so long, I felt compelled to go there and see for myself what was happening. I stayed in houseboats deep in the bayou, saw the oak trees dying from encroaching salt water, talked to people who still lived off the land but who feared for their future. CRCL is an amazing organization that's trying to literally turn the tide in this fight for the Louisiana coast and its people. For more information: www.crcl.org
