California's Freshwater Ecosystems Are In Jeopardy
Manage episode 432302570 series 1511424
When we think about how the climate crisis is affecting California, we look at the wildfires, we look at the heatwaves, but climate change is being felt in our streams, creeks, and rivers as well.
California’s freshwater ecosystems are one of the beating hearts of the state, keeping everything from flora to fauna in good stead. A recent report shines a light on the dangers that these ecosystems are facing and what needs to be done to save them.
To help us dig into this topic, we're joined by Dr. Ted Sommer - research fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California, retired lead scientist for the California Department of Water Resources, and lead author of the report.
