    A Report on the oil's impact on marsh and mangrove for Grayce and Julia

    By wjnichols  |  Posted July 12, 2010  |  Near Grand Isle, Louisiana
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     wjnichols told me, 'We should be sharing this catastrophe with our children, in ways that empower them and inform them.'
    - hhanks, CNN iReport producer

    We visited an island whose impact from the BP oil spill resulted in destruction of marsh grass beds and mangroves.

     

    I made a video to show my daughters Grayce and Julia.

     

    That was harder to do than I expected.
