One way in which humans have modified the environment of Louisiana is by the building of levees.
<h3>How has humanity affected Louisiana's environment?</h3>
As a result of the constant flooding that hits Louisiana especially the deadly one that came with Hurricane Katrina, the government - both federal and state - have invested in the building of levees.
These levees are meant to channel floodwater away from populated areas and therefore protect Louisiana's population from flooding. They have however affected the way the environment of Louisiana looks.
