Today on The Environment Report. How to soften a hurricane's blow. Mark Brush talks with an expert that says putting all our eggs in the levee basket is a bad idea. And... rebuilding the Lower Ninth Ward. For some, the focus after Hurricane Katrina hit was rebuilding the levees. Samara Freemark looks at a different approach - managing the water, instead of trying to hold it back. They call it 'resilience planning.'
