CHRISTINE CURRY

For most of this year, we’ve been focusing on various topics via multiple shows within a series. For the rest of this year, we’ve decided to bring back the original format and invite guests who are local eco-heroes within our midst. Some may be familiar to you and some may not be, but all of their stories are worth sharing.

There is a heightened sense of urgency to retaining our life on this planet as of late, so these conversations will be focused on climate change, our human impact on the diminishing natural resources we depend on, and various ideas and sources of inspiration for a path forward to a more sustainable world.

Lynnae Marty Henzten is joined by Christine Curry, currently serving on the board of the Raccoon River Watershed Association, as well as serving on the board of two Izaak Walton League chapters. Christine is a passionate advocate for animals, nature, people, art, and the environment. As a committed project and product developer and a creative problem solver, her contributions include establishing internationally recognized marine and sustainable agriculture programs and organizations. She is currently working with others to build viable networks and coordinate strong partnerships in Iowa and beyond to achieve clean water and healthy soil and food.
