"Human interactions with the land, its vegetation, and its wildlife are obviously not all benign, but Earth Notes reminds us that there are many among us who have found ways to heal rather than further damage the places that we love."

The Colorado Plateau is one of North
America’s human and environmental treasures. Ancient cultures have
called this land of sun-baked deserts and lush mountain landscapes home for
centuries. Earth Notes, KNAU’s weekly
environmental series, explores the Plateau by telling stories of the intricate
relationships between environmental issues and our daily lives.
Rooted in
science and wrapped in human interest, the two minute long segments encourage
listeners to think of themselves as part of the solution to environmental
problems. Upbeat and informative, the program tries to foster hope and dampen
despair about the environment, and motivate listeners to become more conscious
and informed stewards of the Colorado Plateau.
