In this inaugural Advocacy Hour, host Ryan Carter, policy director for Catawba Riverkeeper Botanical Garden and director of Piedmont Promise, introduces a new monthly series focused on conservation lobbying at state and local levels. Joined by colleague Ellie Riggs, Ryan discusses the intricacies of conservation policy work, the processes behind drafting legislation, and the challenges of communicating complex issues to the public. They delve into their efforts to create a regional identity for North Carolina's Piedmont and their ongoing projects with UNC Chapel Hill’s public policy students.
