In 2018, lumps of frozen soil, collected from the bottom of the world's first deep ice core and lost for decades, reappeared in Denmark. When geologist Paul Bierman and his team first melted a piece of this unique material, they were shocked to find perfectly preserved leaves, twigs, and moss. That observation led them to a startling discovery: Greenland's ice sheet had melted naturally before, about 400,000 years ago.

We are in the midst of an extinction event: the sixth mass extinction on Earth and one entirely caused by mankind. All species become extinct sooner or later, but we have accelerated that natural process several hundredfold, and now, it is happening right in front of our eyes. Extinction has a terrifying finality to it. And many species have already been lost to us forever; there is little we can do about that. What we can do, however, is reflect, remember, and ultimately acknowledge the unvarnished truth.

Join hosts David Sneed and Rocky Carter as they discuss the ongoing issues surounding coastal fisheries management in North Carolina. A variety of guests, each with their own unique expertise, will stop by to take us through the history of these issues and takes on what still faces us today. Fisheries Gone Wild will take the complex subjects at hand and put them into simpler terms so that anyone and everyone who cares about our state's coastal resources can understand the problems at hand and what they can do to help.

Native warm-season forages are not widely known in the eastern U. S. As a result, reliable science- and experience-based information is not readily available. The purpose of this Resource Center is to provide science-based information on native warm-season forages and to present firsthand experiences from producers who are using native warm-season forages in their grazing systems. The intent is to provide you with the knowledge necessary to determine if native warm-season forages are a good fit for your grazing operation.
