Description


Happy Earth Day! In celebration, we are talking about the environment with today’s guest, Karen McGlathery. McGlathery’s work with the Virginia Coast Reserve restored battered seaside ecosystems to thousands of acres of thriving seagrass, and she tells all: why sea grass is so fundamental to climate change, what it’s like to snorkel for field work, and how the data is ultimately channeled toward change. She even gives us the opportunity to hear the ocean singing — in music assembled from data!
