In this episode, we discuss the significance of trees with Jad Daley, chief executive officer of American Forests, and Sarah Emola, executive director of the Life Time Foundation and ESG programs at Life Time. We also talk about how these two organizations are working together to plant more trees and protect existing forests and habitats.
