It Starts with the Doom: Archaeology and Climate Change Part II

This fortnight, Ken and Gabe sit down for a conversation with a real geoarchaeologist: Robin Woywitka (Grant McEwan University). It may start with the doom, but it ends with the laughs, and the hope for a brighter, collaborative future. Grab your Russian Peat Borers, we're headed to the muskeg.
