Speaking of Travel + Climate Listening Project Series Talk Wild Places
Show Notes

The Speaking of Travel + Climate Listening Project continues with Dayna Reggero and special guests to talk about the wild places we love to explore. For almost 40 years, Patagonia has supported grassroots activists working to find solutions to the environmental crisis. But in this time of unprecedented threats, it’s often hard to know the best way to get involved. 

That’s why through Patagonia Action Works, they are connecting individuals with their grantees, to take action on the most pressing issues facing the world today. Three of these grantees are California Trout, Save the Boundary Waters and Accelerating Appalachia. Find out how you can make a difference by becoming a sustainable traveler and taking action, one person at a time! 

Guest Alex Falconer is from Save the Boundary Waters in Minnesota. This organization is creating a national movement to protect the clean water, clean air and forest landscape of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and its watershed from toxic pollution. 

Guest Megan Nguyen is from California Trout and helping solve complex resource issues while balancing the needs of wild fish and people to ensure resilient wild fish thriving in healthy waters for a better California.

Accelerating Appalachia is supporting innovative businesses building a regenerative economy aligned with people, place and prosperity to preserve farmland, sequester carbon, and protect our environment.
