Our show today is about preservation, in nature and beyond. We’ll explore preserving the history of good and bad ideas, preserving a language that has no sounds, and preserving memories from a difficult time that perhaps, you’d rather just forget. Take a journey into a forest that is rethinking humanity’s role in conservation, then take a trek across the country with a man who is trying to put distance between himself and his addiction.
WHYY is your source for fact-based, in-depth journalism and information. As a nonprofit organization, we rely on financial support from readers like you. Please give today.
