Sorting Pen: The California Cattleman Podcast
Season 5, Episode 18
Some increases in biodiversity on working landscapes are easier to handle than others. We asked Meghan Hertel, California Natural Resources Agency Deputy Secretary for Biodiversity and Habitat, to be our guest on this episode to talk about a positive, voluntary initiative that is trying to drive funding, support and increased awareness into the important role that ranchers and rangelands can play in conserving and achieving the 30×30 initiative – an effort to conserve 30% of lands and coastal waters by 2030.
