GLIN==> The Environment Report for 08.14.09

Today on The Environment Report.
 

First, genetically modified crops,
now genetically modified trees.
Mark Brush looks at genetically 
altered eucalyptus trees and the
concern they may become invasive.

And... taking down levees.  We've 
been building levees for more than 
a century, but now we're realizing
the unintended costs.  Samara 
Freemark takes us to Louisiana, 
where levees are being breeched 
to restore habitat and prevent 
flooding downstream.
