Could the answer to the climate and biodiversity crises be a new, more inclusive model for locally-led conservation of America’s lands and waters? In this episode of Stories from the Floodplain, Prairie Rivers Network speaks with Tonyisha Harris, Chicagoland Conservation Manager at the Illinois Environmental Council (IEC). She talks about growing up and becoming an environmentalist on Chicago’s South Side and describes the importance of the 30x30 program, a nationwide effort to conserve 30 percent of the land and water of the United States by 2030.
