What lessons can we learn from the past as we try to protect this same history from a wetter future?  \n\nNext, volunteer Tamara Henderson takes us on a tour to explore rain gardens as a natural solution for stormwater management. \n\nThis is part one of a two-part episode about a group of people trying to preserve history in New Hampshire, while at the same time looking ahead at a flooded future. On our next episode, we speak with an architect and contractor working with Strawbery Banke and find out what it takes to actually build a better future in a port city.  \n\nFull episode transcript is available below. \n\nGuest Speakers:  \n\nRodney Rowland, Director of Environmental Sustainability, Strawbery Banke \n\nTamara Henderson, Volunteer, Strawbery Banke \n\nHosted by: Brian Yurasits, Science Communication Specialist, New Hampshire Sea Grant \n\nCo-hosted by: Erik Chapman, Director, New Hampshire Sea Grant and UNH School of Marine Science and Ocean Engineering \nProduced by: Brian Yurasits \nFurther reading: \n\nNew Hampshire Sea Grant Current Research: https://seagrant.unh.edu/resource/developing-water-level-sensor-monitoring-network-city-portsmouth-new-hampshire-build-community\n\nStrawbery Banke Museum: https://www.strawberybanke.org/\n\nStrawbery Banke’s Sea Level Rise Initiative:...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/sTuThYtLjSr9oX27oC5PH17BvFOoERo1qnLmVs34z1c/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS83ZmI5/NzlhOWViZTUzYzBh/OWNjMWE5NmJmODk4/N2E4OC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
