FM 107.9 Streamkeeping Interview

Broadcasting student Jill Batie of BCIT interviewed me a few days ago for an update on the fish kill in Byrne Creek that happened a month ago.

Jill has kindly allowed me to post the interview here. We covered the issues in depth, including an update on the kill, some positive signs that are emerging in the creek, how storm (rain) drains are connected to the creek, the issue of impermeable surfaces and urban development, sustainability, and how Byrne Creek's ongoing struggle has led to an excellent educational/art program by the Stream of Dreams Murals Society that has touched over 32,000 schoolchildren across BC.

You can download the 25-minute interview in a 2.9MB MP3 file. Hope you enjoy it!
