Description

What does a renowned natural and cultural resource interpreter have in common with the Director of California Department of Fish and Wildlife? Dive into the most recent (and final!) episode of season 3 of the Fish Water People podcast to find out!First, we sit down with Griff Griffith, a natural and cultural resource interpreter, in other words a man who can do it all. He is a content creator for Redwoods Rising, host of the Jumpstart Nature podcast, and much more. He shares his infectious enthusiasm for forest restoration and the emerging "restoration economy" transforming the North Coast. Griff takes us inside the massive Redwoods Rising partnership working to heal previously clear-cut, overplanted forests and create the diverse, resilient ecosystems that once defined the region. His advice for a strong, sustainable America? Fresh water, good soil, clean air, lots of fish, biodiversity, and cool forests.Next, we are joined by Chuck Bonham, Director of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, for a wide-ranging conversation about leading the agency tasked with protecting every living thing in the Golden State. Chuck reflects on 14 years of transformative work - from the historic Klamath dam removal to wolf and beaver reintroduction. We explore balancing conservation with community needs and why both guests believe California can be a model for stewarding natural resources for the next 1,000 years.Griff and Chuck represent two different pieces of the conservation ecosystem, revealing what's possible when we use human innovation as a force for good – and we each have a part to play. Hear more from these inspirational leaders about the hard work contributing to a sustainable future for all Californians.
