Elliot Robinson, a listener of the podcast that works in land restoration in New Orleans, dropped me a line regarding my episode with social anthropologist Dr. Khalil Avi, featured in episode 220 (http://bit.ly/LBWavi). He posed a great question regarding how to deal with a particular "invasive species" in his work, the Chinese Tallow Tree. I sent the audio of Elliot's call to Avi, and he contacted permaculture designer, teacher, and homesteader Tao Orion, author of, Beyond the War on Invasive Species, to provide her expertise in answering Elliot's question. We decided the best course of action was to set up a group call, so Elliot could more adequately pose his questions to Tao and Avi, with myself serving as a facilitator of the discussion. This nearly 40-minute conversation was featured at the end of episode 222 with Dark Mountain co-founder Dougald Hine (http://bit.ly/LBWhine).
