Many in the West (and everywhere really) are worried about the future of wildlife and environment as we grow and alter the landscape. Recently, a dissenting voice has emerged in the conservation movement asking whether the strategies of the past are outdated. Today, we're live in Montana, at the University of Utah's Taft-Nicholson Center for Environmental Humanities. We'll talk about what's working and not working in conservation today, and what better paths there may be for moving forward.
Guests:
- Terry Tempest Williams, Writer and Environmental Activist. Her most recent book is When Women Were Birds [Indiebound|Amazon]
- John Varley, Biologist and Senior Research Scientist at Montana State University
- Harvey Locke, Founder, Yellowstone to Yukon
- Louisa Willcox, Conservation Advocate focused on wildlife of the Northern Rockies.
