Last week the Department of the Interior completed it's efforts to effectively remove critical protections within the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, a 100 year old law that has protected thousands of bird species and millions of birds from human and industrial harm. Alison Holloran, the executive director of Audubon Rockies and Vice President of the National Audubon Society joins Chris and Nell on this week's This Green Earth, to talk about the MBTA, the removal of "incidental taking" and what the Biden administration might be able to do to prevent the proposed Trump changes from being enacted.
