Tonya Bonitatibus, Savannah Riverkeeper, joins us to describe her role as an environmental watchdog. Our conversation explores the intricate web connecting economic growth, environmental regulations, the long term health of workers in chemical plants and those who reside near their employers. Tonya's expertise is an eye-opener, explaining why we all need to learn more about environmental stewardship, how important regulation is, and how regulation differs from one area of the country to another. We also discuss how we know that a particular career path is a calling.Contact the Savannah River keeper at 706-826-8991, or info@savannahriverkeeper.org

That's Not Okay!

Local and state governments, though often overshadowed by federal government, have tremendous impact on our quality of life. This podcast provides a valuable service by educating people on how to improve their own quality of life through civic engagement. Various organizations encourage residents to register and vote, but it does not appear that anyone is showing voters how to make good decisions when they do. It feels akin to hiring someone for a job without reviewing the job description. Local Matters changes that narrative by educating voters with short, clear, and unbiased civics lessons from a career local government professional, public speaker, and management consultant.
