Regional Roundup | Episode 160

 On this week's Regional Roundup, we hear about a poetry festival that took place recently in the Four Corners. Then, we hear from our rural climate reporter on how the Colorado River is at a tipping point due to severe drought, over allocation, and climate change. These issues were discussed at a conference at the law school at CU Boulder. Then, we visit two of our member community radio stations who are expanding their facilities and creating community media centers. We round out the show with a look at a Trump administration effort seeking public feedback on signage at National Parks that officials say may be disrespectful to America. The campaign drew thousands of responses, with many commenters instead expressing strong support for the National Park Service and its mission. Tune into the Regional Roundup on KDNK.org every Thursday at 4:30 pm.
