Program Title: EarthMatters - 30
Description: In 'Protecting Pollinators: How to Save the Creatures that Feed Our World', beekeeper and author Jodi Helmer explores why pollinator decline has become so dire and how it can be reversed. Her book, published by Island Press, offers a hopeful vision for the future of pollinators - not just the iconic monarch butterfly and the dainty hummingbird, but the drab hawk moth and homely bats that are just as essential.

The book ends with twenty-nine actionable ways for readers to get involved with pollinator protection, including choosing plants with a variety of colours, shapes, and scents, and leaving "mulch-free" zones in your yard.

Host(s): Lawson Hunter
Featured Speakers/Guests: Jodi Helmer, author, beekeeper, farmer.
