Find yourself in the thick of it with Martha Williams
Educator-extraordinaire turned climate activist Martha Williams drops by to talk about Mother Earth and what we can do to keep her healthy. Martha has a Master's degree from USC, has worked in education for nearly half a century, and she has personally taken tips on how to help the planet... from Al Gore! We meander through many topics but most revolve around climate change and why it is such a hard problem to understand. She has great stories and was a pleasure to interview. I hope you enjoy!
