[CONVERSATION] FE x Amy x Amy [PART 2]

This is the supporter-exclusive part 2 of our conversation with Amy Martin of Threshold, and Amy Westervelt of Drilled. Find Part 1 here

In this second half of our conversation, we get into more of a roundtable on the practice of environmental journalism and podcasting in these especially scary and chaotic times. For the two of us, unschooled and unqualified in anything resembling journalism, it was a blast to have the privilege of what ended up being a private consulting session with two of our heroes (and to get to share it with you).

[CONVERSATION] Joseph Williams // Building a new Clam Garden

If you were paying close attention to FE6.2, you may have caught a mention of the very first Clam Garden wall built in the modern era, by the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community. In this conversation with Joseph Williams, Shellfish Community Liaison for Swinomish, we get into the details of how they made it happen.

[CONVERSATION] Tal Engel // Integrative Forest Rehabilitation

In the Autumn of 2024, Adam visted Tal Engel of Wolftree Integrative Forest Rehabilitation, and took a tour of the woodlands which serve as a living laboratory for Tal's experiments in ecosystem revitalization and forest fire fuel management.

If you take care of any forested spaces, we're sure you'll be inspired by some of Tal's techniques.

In this Q+A follow-up to FE5.6, we're digging even deeper into the practice of Mitigation Banking, where ecosystem restoration (and nature itself) may be a profitable investment at scale.

While that episode was effectively a monologue for storytelling and stylistic reasons, this conversation gets into the weeds of offsetting, how credits are assessed and monitored, land trusts and permanent stewardship easements, intersections with real estate and Indigenous land back, permitting and project impacts, and Adam Davis's philosophy vis-à-vis capitalism.
