  • Summary

  • To cap off season 1, we hand over the mic to hear from youth! For young people growing up with a drying up Great Salt Lake, this crisis defines a generation – and is an opportunity to re-imagine a collective future. Young people are leading the way to create solutions, from contributing vital scientific research to organizing on-the-ground collective action that centers environmental justice. We talk with Muskan Walia, an organizer with youth-led environmental organization Utah Youth for Environmental Solutions (UYES), and Amanda Lee, a biology student who conducted research on Great Salt Lake at the Westminster Great Salt Lake Institute. While grief is part of the story, we also talk about how important it is to laugh and share joy together – in other words, to stay salty!

    If you are a youth in your teens to early twenties, you can join UYES! Muskan says a good way to get involved is send them a DM on Instagram (@utahyes). Their website: https://utahyes.org/

    This is our last episode of season 1, and we really want to make season 2! Please consider making a donation to help us continue vital storytelling work. Thank you for listening and all of the support!
