This episode explores why connected Appalachian ecosystems are essential for wildlife, people and climate resilience. TNC joins partners from the Massachusetts Department of Transportation and local Berkshire Wildlife Linkage community partners along the Interstate I‑90 corridor. Together, they examine how this major roadway intersects a 2,000‑mile biodiversity corridor and discuss designing infrastructure that reduces barriers, supports wildlife movement, protects public safety and strengthens a thriving, connected Appalachian landscape.
Host: Barbara Charry, Director of Rivers and Lands
Also featuring: Heather Furman, Appalachians Program Director; Angela Sirois-Pitel, Watershed Conservation Manager; Dave Paulson, Massachusetts Department of Transportation; Meredyth Babcock, Wild & Scenic Westfield River Committee.
