Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Look out your window and count the trees. Though they help cut pollution, raise property values, and keep summer temperatures down, the number of trees in our region is decreasing. Kojo talks with local arborists about the challenges of protecting and replenishing our urban woodland.
Guests
