Can anything stop Outer Banks houses from falling into the ocean?

Last fall, news feeds were inundated with dramatic images and videos of beach houses on the Outer Banks of North Carolina falling into the ocean. Several more structures toppled during winter storm weather earlier this year.

WUNC News’ Colin Campbell took a trip to Buxton to learn more for an episode of "Main Street NC," a special series from the WUNC Politics Podcast. He’s joined by two reporters with deep roots in that community to talk about the immediate and long-term impact of beach erosion and climate change.
