98: How one student finds hope in her 'fellow earthlings'

In this episode of Berkeley Voices, Hope Gale-Hendry, a fourth-year student in ecosystem management and forestry at UC Berkeley, shares in her own words how she discovered her deep interconnectedness with all living things, and why she decided to study the American pika. "We have a shared history on this planet," said Hope. "That is the lesson that I have been able to use to foster my passion for conservation and foster this love and admiration that I have for my cousins on this planet. Not just humans, but moss and squirrels and horses and farm animals and lichen and every beautiful and unique species that has been on their own journey."Listen to the episode, read the transcript and see photos on UC Berkeley News: https://news.berkeley.edu/2022/04/15/berkeley-voices-fellow-earthlings/Follow Berkeley Voices and review us on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.Music by Blue Dot Sessions.Photo courtesy of Hope Gale-Hendry.
