Mission

THE MISSION OF THE COALITION TO RESTORE COASTAL LOUISIANA (CRCL) IS TO UNITE PEOPLE IN ACTION TO ACHIEVE A THRIVING, SUSTAINABLE LOUISIANA COAST FOR ALL.

Program accomplishments

• RESTORATION PROGRAMS: THE RESTORATION PROGRAMS HAVE TWO MAIN COMPONENTS, THE OYSTER SHELL RECYLING PROGRAM AND NATIVE PLANTS PROGRAM. OYSTER SHELL RECYCLING PROGRAM: LAUNCHED IN JUNE 2014, CRCL'S OSRP WAS ESTABLISHED TO KEEP SHELL OUT OF LANDFILLS AND SLOW COASTAL LAND LOSS. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH NEW ORLEANS AND BATON ROUGE RESTAURANTS AND HUNDREDS OF VOLUNTEERS EACH YEAR, CRCL COLLECTS, CURES AND BAGS OYSTER SHELL BEFORE USING IT TO BUILD OYSTER REEFS AND LIVING SHORELINE HABITAT. THROUGH THE OSRP, THE FIRST PROGRAM OF ITS KIND IN LOUISIANA, CRCL HAS RECYCLED MORE THAN 16 MILLION POUNDS OF SHELL AND TOGETHER WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS HAS BUILT SEVEN OYSTER REEFS TOTALING MORE THAN 8,000 LINEAR FEET OF SHORELINE PROTECTION. CRCL'S OYSTER SHELL RECYCLING PROGRAM PROVIDES COMMUNITY MEMBERS WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO VOLUNTEER IN COASTAL RESTORATION WORK, TO LEARN HOW LOUISIANA'S WETLANDS PROTECT AND PROVIDE FOR OUR COMMUNITIES, AND TO SEE FIRSTHAND HOW OYSTER SHELLS CAN SUPPORT COASTAL ECOSYSTEMS WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF LARGER RESTORATION PLANS. MORE THAN 40 RESTAURANTS PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM. NATIVE PLANTS PROGRAM: FOUNDED IN 2000, CRCL'S NATIVE PLANTS PROGRAM (NPP) LEADS OUR EFFORTS TO RESTORE LOUISIANA'S COASTAL HABITATS BY ENGAGING VOLUNTEERS AND STAKEHOLDERS TO BE A PART OF THE SOLUTION. THROUGH LARGE-SCALE PLANTINGS OF NATIVE PLANTS AND TREES, OUR PARTNERSHIPS AND EVENTS FACILITATE ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP BY LOUISIANA INDUSTRIES, LANDOWNERS, BUSINESS LEADERS, RESIDENTS AND VISITORS. THE NPP PROVIDES VALUABLE EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES FOR ITS VOLUNTEERS. PARTICIPANTS LEARN ABOUT OUR COASTAL LAND LOSS CRISIS, ITS MAIN CAUSES AND THE VARIOUS SOLUTIONS BEING IMPLEMENTED ACROSS THE ENTIRE LOUISIANA COAST. SINCE ITS INCEPTION, THE NPP HAS ENGAGED HUNDREDS OF VOLUNTEERS EACH YEAR PLANTING MORE THAN 1 MILLION TREES, GRASSES AND OTHER VEGETATION.
