No way, Rosé: w/ Special Guest Mrs. Jessica ’Doubtfire’ Young

Helloooooooooooo!

In this week's episode Jessica and Dana reveal too much about their own appearance, hygiene, and pandemic habits. They aren't proud, just resigned.

Corners this week have us in awe of a middle school student who saved two lives in one day, but wondering if it's ethically appropriate to train a murder of crows to clean up after humans. It has also become very clear that Jessica and Dana don't know how to stop talking and end the podcast. Side note, Jessica is obsessed with the movie 'Mrs. Doubtfire'.

Wild Coast:

Our coastal ecosystems are incredibly efficient at removing harmful amounts of carbon from the atmosphere and can store it for thousands of years, making these areas key in the fight against climate change.

“If we are to address climate change, it is imperative that we not only reduce emissions globally. We also have to conserve and restore the natural ecosystems that help us sequester carbon and adapt to climate change. In the case of mangroves, these ecosystems protect shorelines against rising seas levels and dangerous chubasco storm surges as well as sequester carbon,” says Frausto.

With the support of SeaTrees, WILDCOAST is working with women in Laguna San Ignacio to plant 40,000 mangroves over 25 acres of tidal zones, creating a habitat suitable for fish, shellfish, wildlife, and adapting to and mitigating climate change. Through legal protection and management, WILDCOAST has helped to conserve 38,336 acres of mangrove forests that store 3.5 million tons of carbon, equivalent to the emissions of 2.8 million cars driven in one year. As Frausto points out, it’s a natural solution to tackling climate change — a piece of the puzzle we can all put together now before it’s too late.
