Show Notes

Over the past few years, the historic homes at Strawbery Banke in Portsmouth, New Hampshire have been feeling the brunt of sea level rise. The museum has put together a new exhibit, in connection with their partners, for visitors to see first hand what the effects of climate change are doing to the museum, and how they can help. Rodney Rowland, the Director of Facilities and Environmental Sustainability, returns to the show to talk with Nichole about the exhibit and the status of the beloved homes, which date back centuries. John Linehan, President and CEO of Zoo New England, joins the show to talk with Nichole about their special virtual program for families, kids, and anyone who loves animals - virtual breakfast with animals at the zoo! John also shares conservation projects they're working on, and how the zoos are handling COVID as they reopen.
