Episode 172: Sea Turtles & Glass - pt. 1

Why do we care about Sea Turtles? Because they are endangered. Also because there are regulations for visible light transmittance for your windows and doors when you live on the beach. We sometimes refer to this as Turtle Glass, and its purpose is to minimize light pollution. Melissa Macksey, Senior Biologist and Conservation Manager of Mote Marine Laboratories in Sarasota joined me to talk about the work of protecting our sea turtles in our intersecting environments.
