Houses in New Orleans are transformed into Mardi Gras floats
For the people of New Orleans, Louisiana, Mardi Gras is more than just the world's biggest free party. It is the throbbing, pulsing, beating heart of the city's culture. But the coronavirus pandemic put much of that on hold after the city of New Orleans announced on Friday that the city would close all bars, ban the sale of to-go drinks, and halt all large gatherings from February 12 to February 16. Despite the COVID-19 restrictions, the ever-creative residents of New Orleans have found a whole new canvas for their artistic expression. Jamie Wax has the details.

Awesome! Making the best out of a bad situation and actually improving tradition. I can see this becoming a staple in Mardi Gras celebrations, even when the parade returns.

I figured out the plot
GREAT RESPECT! I am from Russia, Siberian. Positioning myself: INVENTOR! ... My know-how!, (Power take-off rotor - conveyor type) will allow you to get energy from the river, without any special hydraulic structures, without coal, gas, oil. .. all year round - ecological. Show in full ... More than 11,000 scientists from all over the world have gathered to declare a climate emergency. Their article, published in the journal Bioscience, explores the science behind this problem and how to solve it. Recently, this topic has been constantly raised. However, signatories from 153 countries note that society has taken too little action to prevent a climate catastrophe. Despite longstanding claims that burning fossil fuels causes serious environmental damage, global industry has been slow to switch to alternative and cleaner energy sources. Of course, these are banal business laws - but greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere are steadily growing, and humanity itself suffers from this first of all.
Like New York and all the fake people who left thank God. New Orleans is nothing without the native people. It was always about the food, the music and the love for everybody. Not *hit, stuff, things or floats.

One of the few drawbacks of watching CBS News, Michelle Miller always makes links the stories to herself. Some objectivity is necessary in journalism.

@@deanwest8568 yes Mardi gra has very debauched roots, it is also catholic and latin which I may assume you dislike, I may say however Mardi gra has evolved solely just for the city of New Orleans, it's pride, culture and Heritage, But if you want to look at it in that lense I can't blame you
