GLIN==> The Environment Report for 06.18.09

Today on The Environment Report.
 
Traffic jams function like bombs.  We take a look at how 'phantom
traffic jams' - when everyone slows down for no apparent reason - have
a pattern like detonation waves after an explosion.


  


And... sea levels are rising fast... putting some coastal towns at risk.
Tamara Keith visited one community that's taking a more natural
approach to protecting their shoreline.  Tearing down bulkheads... and
putting up plants.
