On this week’s Regional Roundup, we hear about efforts in Jackson, Wyoming, to address the growing epidemic of male loneliness, and a report on an attempt to remove the 10-mile buffer that protects the land around Chaco Culture National Historical Park from future oil and gas drilling. We also hear about the Rocky Mountain Indigenous Dancers, and a program in western Colorado working to diversify the next generation of farmers. We finish the show with a sound-rich portrait of cottonwood trees and a story about how scientists are studying trees along the Crystal River to help strengthen protections for the river. Tune into the Regional Roundup on KDNK.org every Thursday at 4:30 pm.
