Sights for Sore Eye

Our dunes miniseries has focused on, well, dunes thus far, but the conversation we're really having is on the relationship between development and nature. Jake Parcell, executive director of Scenic Michigan, joins us to provide other perspectives of this relationship: aesthetics and sight pollution.

In our fourth episode, we'll talk about scenic byways, dark sky parks, nature nearby and the mundane polluters of sight we may come to accept (but certainly shouldn't).
