If New Orleans is to be rebuilt (and I hope it will be), the plan should include importing a billion metric tons of soil to raise it above sea level.

With global warming and the resulting melting of the polar ice, ocean levels will rise, and make low lying areas face greater risk.

No sense rebuilding to have it all destroyed again.
