Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Guest Host: Jim Asendio
Plants play many vital roles in our environment. They can brighten a dull workspace, help reduce crime, foster a sense of community, counter climate change and more. We explore how we use and share green space in urban environments, including the physical and psychological impact of nature and whether we’re using nature to our best advantage here in the Washington region.
Guests
- Holly Shimizu Executive Director, U.S. Botanic Garden
- Travis Price Architect; and author of "The Archeology of Tomorrow" (Earth Aware Editions)
- Dan Stark Executive Director, American Public Gardens Association
