Davis Saltonstall's personal manifesto is ever-changing, but a core element of his drive comes from sustaining the environment. And it was with this focus that he chose to bike from Maine to Washington state in the summer of 2016. 

Davis originally set out to learn the stories of fellow citizens across the US and how their towns were being impacted from everything related to climate from coal mining to new forms of agriculture. In hindsight, there was more to understand in what was the summer prior to the 2016 presidential election. 

In this episode, we talk to Davis about some of his deeper reflections from that journey and others, as well as learn how he made a summer-long bike trip happen.
