LOUISIANA: THE STATE WE'RE IN
Friday 7:00pm | Sunday 5:00pm
Scientists are trying to get to the bottom of a series of earthquakes that rattled parts of north Louisiana in early March. The most significant measured magnitude 4.9, making it one of the strongest quakes in the state's history. Experts are now trying to determine if they are being caused by natural processes or whether wastewater injection played a role.

Now residents are losing vital services; with no doctors, and only one school remaining on the island. Police and fire services are also at risk because of a dwindling population. Learn how local and state leaders are fighting to protect their small piece of paradise.
