    S2 | Rewind Design | E12 Georgian Bay Biosphere - Mnidoo Gamii with Katrina + Tianna

    In today's episode of the Rewind Design podcast, host Katy McNabb welcomes experts Katrina Krievins and Tianna Burke from the Georgian Bay Biosphere for an intriguing conversation on ecology, conservation, and sustainable living. This compelling episode examines various topics like the impact of certain construction on the environment and the importance of adopting sustainable building practices, shedding light on the organization's initiatives and programs. The discussion deep-dives into the 'State of the Bay' report - an effort encapsulating changes in the Eastern Georgian Bay's environment. Katrina, a significant contributor to the report, walks us through the key findings related to water quality, fish communities, and coastal wetlands. Further, this episode explores how citizens can contribute to conservation and focuses on fostering a sustainable co-existence with the myriad species within the natural ecosystem. The podcast also delves into sustainable development and its increasing relevance in the wake of intense construction activities in the area. We discuss the need to respect the land and learn about helpful tools such as the Biosphere Habitat Screening Tool and the Life on the Bay Guide that encourage mindful construction practices. We conclude by highlighting simple, implementable practices like maintaining natural shorelines and habitat restoration for a healthier bay. In this enlightening discussion, Katy McNabb, together with her guests, explores the balance between respecting natural habitats and developing new land. We look into the construction permitting processes, learn about safeguarding soil from erosion during construction, and stress on the vitality of considering wildlife nesting seasons. We learn about the current awareness of invasive species among cottagers, the importance of native species, and the influence of local plant genetics. The episode ends by emphasizing the need for environmental awareness, respect, and coexistence. It encourages listeners to get involved and contribute in their own way to preserving the environment, leveraging opportunities like the iNaturalist Project, or even volunteering their time and efforts. It serves as a reminder of our shared responsibility to nurture our backyards for the future generation. https://georgianbaybiosphere.com/ FOLLOW REWIND DESIGN!
