ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week's conversation is with Brad Kreps of The Nature Conservancy where we learn about how our local river mussels clean water and protect fish and humans. However, they're endangered. Conserving these mussels, land, and the exceptional biodiversity of this area is the work of Brad Kreps and the global organization he works for. How and why does he maintain optimism and how did a boy from coastal Virginia become such a devotee of the mountains?
