Earth Day: Climate Change Hits An American Street

Book Cover

We often think about climate change as a global phenomenon but it can often be seen in the changes that take place in your backyard. Delmarva Public Media's Don Rush talks to Mike Tidwell, founder of the Chesapeake Climate Action Network and author of a new book entitled, "The Lost Trees of Willow Avenue: A Story of Climate and Hope on One American Street" in which he describes the deaths of some of the oldest trees in Takoma Park, Maryland. The full interview can be heard on this Friday's Delmarva Today at noon on WSDL and WESM.

Don Rush is the News Director and Senior Producer of News and Public Affairs at Delmarva Public Media. An award-winning journalist, Don reports major local issues of the day, from sea level rise, to urban development, to the changing demographics of Delmarva.
