Earth Day, Climate, and Wildfires
Earth Day is April 22, initiated in 1970 to focus attention on the planet’s well-being. Retired National Weather Service meteorologist Hugh Johnson spoke with Brea Barthel and Lennox Apudo about the history of this day, how the climate has changed since 1970, and policies that are connected to climate activism. They also spoke about the possibility of wild fires this summer and the weather for the week ahead.
