Episode Synopsis "Ecosystem Services & Biodiversity with Dr. Scot Duncan"

In this episode of the Shine Springs Farm Shinecast®, I’m featuring a conversation with Dr. Scot Duncan, a professor of biology at Birmingham Southern College and the author of Southern Wonder, Alabama’s Surprising Biodiversity. Scot and I talk about ecosystem services and other benefits of nature. We recorded this conversation in a coffee shop, so you’ll notice a bit of background noise, despite the pro mics and mixer I set up on a table in the corner. My apologies for that. It's not too bad, but slightly distracting. It's been a while (understatement) but I'm very pleased to be back with the Shine Springs Farm Shinecast. Look for an explainer episode next to let you know why I've been away and what's coming for the Shine Springs Farm Shinecast. I think you're going to like it. You can get more information at http://shinecast.net and http://shereemartin.com In the meantime, I hope you'll check out the Shine Springs Farm Facebook page here: http:www.facebook.com/ShineSpringsFarm
