E32 – Steve Mietz — Saving Redwoods, Rebuilding Forests & Restoring Hope 🌲🔥

Join us for an extraordinary conversation with Steve Mietz, President & CEO of Save the Redwoods League, as we dig into one of the most ambitious restoration efforts in America: saving, restoring, and reconnecting the legendary Redwood and Sequoia forests. Steve’s journey spans Grand Canyon, Great Basin, Point Reyes, Pearl Harbor, and Redwood National & State Parks, blending science, land stewardship, economics, and tribal partnership into a hopeful, deeply inspiring vision for the future of our forests. In this episode we explore: • Why only 5% of old-growth Redwoods remain — and how we can create the next 5% • How a century of fire suppression created a crisis — and how tribal burning is fixing it • Restoring buried creeks and watching salmon return within months • The power of tribes reclaiming ancestral lands and cultural fire practices • Why Redwoods are Earth’s greatest carbon sink (yes, more than the Amazon) • The hope, healing, and perspective that giant trees give us in a chaotic world • The League’s 100-year plan to protect 800,000 acres across California • How Redwoods “save us” as much as we save them This episode is filled with wisdom, science, storytelling, and real-world solutions — not doom, but hope. 📚 Steve’s Book Recommendation: A Sand County Almanac — Aldo Leopold 👇 Bonus content & updates live here: https://naturallyscott.kit.com/5fd12c...
