Manage episode 474773510 series 1761649
California's logging industry has been shrinking for years, with an aging workforce and fewer young people entering the trade. But in Northern California, a community college is stepping in to change that, helping to train the next generation of loggers through an innovative apprenticeship program.
Guest: Kate Rix, The Hechinger Report
The California snowpack is close to 100 percent for the third year in a row. That hasn’t happened in three consecutive years since the late 1990s.
