Regional Roundup Episode 168

On this week’s Regional Roundup, we explore the mental and emotional toll a hectic fire season can take on firefighters. We also look at how the language we use to describe wildfire can shape the way we feel about fire. Then, we turn to water, and we hear a report about the impact of this year’s drought on the Arkansas River and the communities that depend on it. We round out the show with a discussion on what the latest federal management plan for the Colorado River could mean for the future of the river and the seven states that rely on it.
