A status update on our National Parks

Broadcast date: 03/09/2016

The National Parks Conservation Association was established back in 1919 just three years after the formation of the National Park Service to protect and enhance our national parks. 

Come along and join Correspondent, Tom Wilmer as he visits with Megan Cantrell, Social Media Manager at NPCA’s headquarters in Washington D.C. Cantrell talks about NPCA’s primary mission, and the various ways the organization utilizes social media to get the word out about critical environmental issues affecting our National Parks.

Tom Wilmer produces on-air content for Issues & Ideas airing over KCBX and is producer and host of the six-time Lowell Thomas award-winning NPR podcast Journeys of Discovery with Tom Wilmer. Recorded live on-location across America and around the world, the podcasts feature the arts, culture, music, nature, history, science, wine & spirits, brewpubs, and the culinary arts--everything from baseball to exploring South Pacific atolls to interviewing the real Santa Claus in the Arctic.
