The Saving Salmon podcast explores the challenges facing wild Atlantic salmon, from Maine to Greenland.

ASF staff did not tell Keating what to write or who to interview, they wanted a deep-dive into the enormous challenges wild salmon and other sea-run fish face. This podcast is the result of six months of field...

I'll never forget that day. The horror, fear and the uncertainty of what was to come are still etched on my memory. But I didn't know that in that moment, somewhere off the M1 in a place that seemed as unnerving as it was eerie, I would find something so precious that would change my life forever. That was the day I discovered my Buddy, abandoned in a crate, unable to move and so frail that he only had moments to live. He stopped me in my tracks, and without pausing to think I scooped him up and quickly ran from the scene. This was no place for people or animals.

When Jon Katz got a call from an animal control officer about Simon, a neglected donkey who had been found on a failing farm in upstate New York, he wasn't expecting to add another animal to his already full life. But when he made the trek out to meet him, he couldn't help falling in love with the skinny, mangy donkey who had already suffered so much, and he ended up taking him into his home. It was Simon who listened in the fields as Jon read to him and discussed philosophy.

In February 2022, the Lake Bomoseen Association petitioned the Vermont DEC for a permit to apply herbicide on approximately 600 acres of the lake over the span of three years. Thousands of folks around the lake oppose the spraying, all three town select boards oppose it, and the LBA board and Lake Bomoseen Preservation Trust still want to go ahead with the spraying. We’ll dive into the issue and why herbicide isn’t a solution on Bomoseen.

Our current emphasis on hyper-cleanliness is taking a toll on our children's lifelong health. This engaging and important book explains how the millions of microbes that live in our bodies influence childhood development.

A paradigm shift is roiling the environmental world. For decades people have unquestioningly accepted the idea that our goal is to preserve nature in its pristine, pre-human state. But many scientists have come to see this as an outdated dream that thwarts bold new plans to save the environment and prevents us from having a fuller relationship with nature. Humans have changed the landscapes they inhabit since prehistory, and climate change means even the remotest places now bear the fingerprints of humanity.
