CELEBRATION OF NATURE SERIES:
NY’S ROLE IN RAINFOREST PROTECTION

We speak to Eco-Logic Collective Member Tim Keating, founder of Earthbilt, who has been working on deforestation issues for decades, originally with Rainforest Relief. Tune in to find out why rainforests matter to our health and to our climate, how NYC has caused miles of rainforest destruction, and the bill that has passed both houses of the NY State legislature, now awaiting a signature from the governor, that will do much to protect rainforests.
