Our take on How Wild podcast

How Wild, hosted by Marissa Ortega-Welch, explores what wilderness is today and how much human intervention is there, too. She looks at the fine line between letting nature run its course and stepping in to help. And what about climate change, which affects every corner of the planet. The first episode takes us on a journey to the Sequoia National Park, where the debate among land managers and environmentalists is as vast as the wilderness they aim to protect. It's a thought-provoking listen that challenges how we view our role in natural balance. Perfect for those who love the great outdoors and meaningful conversations.
