Show Notes
Dayna Reggero of The Climate Listening Project, Rita Frost of Dogwood Alliance and Rev. Leo Woodberry of the Justice First Tour, discuss forest conservation and how to protect our connection to nature. Forests are life-sustaining. Forests provide us with the very air we breathe and clean our drinking water supply. They are our connection to nature and can help us cope with stress, fatigue and anxiety. For over 20 years, Dogwood Alliance has worked with diverse communities, partner organizations and decision-makers to protect Southern forests across 14 states.The Justice First Tour calls for a strong network of grassroots and frontline organizations working together to advance climate justice and forest protection, with a focus on 100% clean energy for 100% of the people.
