In this podcast we present an interview with former Director of the California Coastal Commission, Charles Lester. Lester presided over the most powerful regulatory body in the nation when it comes to coastal protection under Governors Davis, Schwarzenegger, and Brown. He’ll talk about protecting our coasts against drilling, development and sea level rise among other things. Plus news and a report about Watsonville Wetlands Watch, a program to protect what’s left of this precious natural area. Air Date: February 11, 2018 on KSCO radio station AM1080
