New Orleans Prepares To Mark 10 Year Anniversary Of Hurricane Katrina

PLAQUEMINES PARISH, LA - AUGUST 25: A marsh creation project stands near deteriorating wetlands on August 25, 2015 in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana. Louisiana is currently losing its wetlands at a rate of one football field per hour. Wetlands act as a storm buffer and their diminished size was a major contributing factor to the force with which Hurricane Katrina's storm surge hit New Orleans. The city is implementing efforts to restore some of the wetlands. The tenth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina is August 29. (Photo by Mario Tama/Getty Images)
