Becky is currently studying butterfly response to forest fires in Mexico (!) and oh my GOSH do we talk about a lot of good stuff in this episode.

You can scratch your travel itch by hearing about Becky’s field work experiences.

She gives us her definition of conservation - then takes it a step further and highlights the importance of looking at political, social, and economic barriers to conservation.

We chat about environmental justice and how to respect the places we are all recreating, studying, and traveling.
