S2 E07 Natasha Barlow - Birds Canada, Boreal Conservation
03/16/21 • 39 min
Natasha is currently working to facilitate the protection of Boreal birds across Canada, during all parts of their life cycle, as a Boreal Conservation Project Specialist with Birds Canada. She believes that by studying birds, it can allow us to rectify the disconnect between scientists and the public, providing an avenue where we can have those difficult conversations about conservation that need to be had. Through Natasha's work, she has become increasingly aware of the interesting challenges that come with balancing human needs with natural resource protection.

I recorded this episode on the Williams Treaty, signed in 1923 by 7 Anishnaabe First Nations. The closest community to me is the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation. This region is the traditional territory of the Anishnaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples, which they shared peacefully under the Dish with One Spoon Wampum agreement. Today, it is still home to many First Nations, Metis, and Inuit peoples.

Transcript
Hello, and welcome to all my fellow trailblazers. I'm your host, Meredith Meeker. And this is another episode of how do I do this and environmental career podcast.
I am so grateful for the warmer temperatures and the little taste of spring we had this week. I think for a lot of us, the return of sunshine and the prospect of spending even more time outdoors is a huge relief and one that cannot come soon enough.
