A large portion of Entergy's customer base and the majority of its utility infrastructure are in the Gulf Coast region. Recognizing that sea level rise and coastal erosion are risks to our assets and the customers we serve, Entergy has worked to support programs that help restore and rebuild the wetlands that serve as natural protection in severe weather situations.

Recently, we joined our partners at Tierra Resources to speak with Peter O’Dowd of Here and Now on WBUR about why that work is so important:
