Listeners will hear from Laura Dubester and Nancy Nylen, who, with Laura’s late husband, developed CET’s science based, community-based programs beginning in the nineteen seventies and eighties; Ashley Muspratt, the current president of CET, which now serves communities across the country; and Jack Anderson, a senior at Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts, who projects a future working in the environmental arena.
