My solution to New Orleans, is not to rebuild it, build around it and return the land to the gulf. It is mean't to be under the sea anyways. So why fight it? Why spend so much money building levies? The sea level is rising anyway, so are we going to keep building the levies higher and higher? To some, fighting mother nature is the way to go, because we should "preserve history" no matter the cost. The news also said that the landfills are overflowing in Louisiana and Mississippi. I think they should somehow reuse trash from the landfills to create the levies. Easier said than done, but wouldn't it be better to make good use of the trash?
We also need to find new sources of fuel. Popular science had posted an article about having wind-turbines in the sky. It makes good sense to me since it doesn't use up valuable land like solar panels do. However, I do believe that we should put solar panels on roofs and make good use of skylights to reduce the need for indoor lighting during the day. Energy efficient homes should be mandated.
