    St. Mary's Nativity School asks: Could you tell us more about mangrove trees?    CC answers:  The United States has three species of mangroves:  the black, the red, and the white.  We just saw many small black mangroves in Grand Isle and in Fourchon.  They were 4 foot tall at the most.  I ahve seen mangroves in Mexico 40 feet tall.  They are tropical and need warm weather.  We will do an article on mangroves later in the year.
    Audubon Elementary asks: Studies predict that by 2050 over 500 more square miles of Louisiana will disappear.  Is this a realistic projection?    CC answers:  If we don't start doing more now to protect what we ahve that is a very realistic projection.  If youa dd in a few major hurricanes, it could be more.
