Climate Change Impacts to Hunting and Fishing with Johnny Carrol Sain of Conservation Hawks
Johnny Carrol Sain is an award-winning outdoor writer from Arkansas and a board member for Conservation Hawks, a nonprofit with a mission to protect hunting and fishing from the impacts of climate change. We caught up with Johnny at the Outdoor Writers Association of America annual conference in Little Rock, Arkansas, where he accepted an Excellence In Craft award for his writing. In this episode, he describes the impact that climate change is having on hunting and fishing in Arkansas, the role of outdoor writers in conservation, good books, how he approaches his work, and the recent victory to protect the Buffalo National River from a polluting hog farm.
