Hello from the shores of Lake Placid! Actually, I'm closer to Saranac Lake, but the house I'm staying at this week in New York is a short drive from Lake Placid and I'm loving the coincidence of...

Climate Week En Review: July 19, 2024
Hey, hey, hey… we are MELTING in the DMV this week with multiple days past 100 degrees and nights that aren’t cooling off enough for my taste. It makes one miss the good old days of normal summer, sleeping with the windows open, and yes, I’m of the age that if we were thirsty and playing outside, we drank from the hose.

Here comes the rain again… looks like a potentially soggy weekend for me, but I’m not sad about it. My garden has been a little crunchy with our lack of rain, so I will take it!

Here we are with your abbreviated edition of Week En Review before everyone heads off for what I hope is a long weekend.
EcoRight Speaks: Season 8 Finale
Thank you so much to all our wonderful guests who came on the show to talk about their areas of expertise. We had all “new to us” guests this season, and I like to think we made a bunch of new friends, many whom we will have back in future seasons.

Bye, June. Each day is getting shorter as we march to autumn (or so I keep telling myself). Still, it’s hard to believe next week is the Fourth of July! And since the team is taking both the holiday on Thursday and Friday off, you can look for Week En Review to hit your inboxes on Wednesday! Happy birthday, America!

Climate Week En Review: June 21, 2024
Yesterday was the first day of summer, but this heat wave is anything but normal popsicle weather with 94 million Americans under a heat advisory. The Capital Weather Gang is telling those of us in the DC area to limit outdoor activities after 11am this weekend, if possible. But at least I do not live in New Delhi, India, which just hit their 37th day in a row of temperatures 104 degrees or higher. How many days until fall?

Climate Week En Review: June 14, 2024
Hello from Scotland, where I have been working the last few days (from a wee AirBnB in Glasgow) but today I’m technically off from work and as you read this, am riding a gravel bike around the Isle of Arran! I’m not even sure I’ve told my teammates this, as the trip was made pretty quickly on the heels of the Jordan Bike Trail experience and maybe I’m reticent to admit that I am truly a biker chick now!
EcoRight Speaks, Season 8, Episode 14: ACC founder and author, Benji Backer
It’s season eight and we FINALLY got American Conservation Coalition (ACC) founder and executive chairman and recent author Benji Backer on the show! He’s smart. He’s charming. Our conversation was not only overdue but delightful!

TGIF! If you’re looking at the graphic above and thinking how pretty it is, it’s the clover of Angela Larck’s “lawn” and it’s much friendlier for the bees than traditional grass. That theme connects to our podcast episode of the week, which you must listen to if you haven’t already! And if you have any questions about converting your lawn to habitat, you have friends on this team to give their advice!
