From Capital Public Radio, the second in its five-part series titled California’s Delta: Inside and Out:
“The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta was once a vast tidal marshland and inland estuary. Now thousands of miles of fragile levees surround artificial islands below sea level. More than 90 percent of wetlands have disappeared, and native fish are dying.”
The first part of the series was titled “California’s Water Supply, A 700 Mile Journey”
