In this episode we talk to San Jose’s 2022 Climate Smart Water Conservation Champion, Stephanie Morris. She discusses what people can do inside and outside of their homes to adapt to droughts during the climate crisis. As a Bay Area-based landscape designer, she has a myriad of helpful ideas for how native plant gardens and mindful water usage can make a real difference when it comes to a precious resource we all need: water.
