Leahy speaks to Maine Science Podcast about human dimensions of climate change

Jessica Leahy, professor of human dimensions of natural resources at the University of Maine, was featured on the Maine Science Podcast’s latest episode.

Leahy discussed her research about environmental attitudes and behaviors toward forests, forestry and other natural resource management topics using a social psychology and communication approach. She said that her work focuses on four populations: outdoor recreationists, forest landowners, natural resource managers and the general public. 

The podcast, a production of the Maine Science Festival, has featured other experts from the UMaine community in previous episodes.
