Description

In this episode of Naturally Speaking, Zakithi explores the growing threat of invasive water chestnut in Northern New York’s rivers and lakes. Joined by researchers Brad Baldwin and Peyton Robbins, and Megan Pistolese-Shaw from SLELO PRISM, we dive into how this plant spreads, its impact on local ecosystems and communities, and the ongoing efforts to control it. Whether you're a paddler, angler, or nature lover, find out how you can help protect our waters. Get involved with SLELO PRISM at sleloinvasives.org/events, or sleloinvasives.org/pledge-to-protect.
