In this episode, Brett talks with one of the most renowned environmental advocates in Florida – Eric Draper.  Draper is most known for his advocacy on behalf of Everglades protection and the Florida Forever land-buying programs, but he recently served a successful tour as the Director of the Florida State Parks Service.  They talk about effective environmental advocacy; Eric’s continued concern about the global effects of climate change; and the importance of developing partnerships instead of enemies. Get a transcript of this episode.
