Today on the show I'm joined by conservation writer and BHA podcast host Hal Herring to explore how to be a conservationist in a post-pandemic world. Topics discussed: When Hal knew he had to tackle conservation and advocacy as his life's work Early inspirations How to channel anger and frustration with anti-environment/public land acts How to filter all of the information and misinformation when trying to learn about possible threats to wildlife or wild places Resources for unvarnished truth related to wildlife and wild places How to achieve an informed and relatively unbiased opinion How to get politicians to actually listen to hunters and anglers Do hunters and anglers still have the stomach to fight for our resources? How will COVID-19 impact conservation efforts How/when should we begin to push for conservation wins amidst the pandemic What to consider leading up to the vote in 2020 Connect with Mark Kenyon and MeatEater Mark Kenyon on Instagram , Twitter , and Facebook MeatEater on Instagram , Facebook , Twitter , and Youtube Shop MeatEater Merch See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
