Greater Greener Georgia

Greater Greener Georgia is a short biweekly podcast where we talk about current event issues in Georgia, especially issues around climate change and the environment. We know it can be hard to focus on important news in today’s society, especially with the flood of information that comes at us from all directions. We want to help simplify things and highlight the problems and successes that matter.
