\\nInmates fighting wildfires, a sustainable ranch outside of Elko and microplastics in our environment.
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nThis week we are rewinding to hear some of our favorite podcast stories from the past, starting with a segment former intern Zach Bright did on inmate firefighters and their meager pay. After that, we have a story from former reporter Jazmin Orozco Rodriguez and photographer David Calvert on a ranch outside of Elko that is looking to operate in a more sustainable way. At the end of the show, reporter Daniel Rothberg interviews Desert Research Institute\\u2019s Dr. Monica Arienzo about the effects that disintegrated plastics have on the environment.
