As a resident of New Orleans I wasn anxios to see the movie when it was first released down here on the anniversary of Katrina. I also found that it could have given more info, but its an IMAX film and they are all geared to tourist. The point was to raise awareness about the issue of coastal restoration, and it did that.

As far as the sponsors for the movie remeber it was filmed in Louisiana and most of large companies tend to be in the oil industry.

Everyone wants to put the blame on them for the destruction of the wetlands and they are indeed responsible for a good bit of it, but the real destruction has occured because since the US bought Louisiana it has decided that it needs to control the river for commerce. The river levees have prevented the river from flooding its banks, and therefore there has been no silt to replenish what is slowly sinking by nature.

It is time for American to wake up and realize that we have a major problem down here and that a large portion of the nations oil supply passes through this region. This is not an issue that will only effect louisiana, it will effect the entire country.

Everyone needs to put global warming asside and put their attention down here. we have our plans for recovery, we just need the money to make it happen.
