In this episode, Shelby and Anton cover the unusual art of fog-catching, issues surrounding the rights of salmon, and what regulations are in place to prevent pollution in Lake Erie.
Segment 1: With climate change, droughts are more common than they used to be. All over the world people are getting creative with their climate solutions--including Peruvians who have mastered the art of fog-catching.
Segment 2: Do fish have rights? Anton discusses a lawsuit that declared salmon have the inherent right to exist and thrive in their native lands. Hopefully this sets a precedent for more environmental protective policy!
Segment 3: Shelby highlights a case, that originated in Toledo, Ohio, where a federal judge struck down the notion that Lake Erie has rights. How can we keep the Lake Erie bill of rights alive? How do we protect our environment? Shelby and Anton discuss solutions.
