We go inside outdoors with ecologist Dr. William H. Martin. His career in Kentucky conservation began in the 1960s. It includes decades as a professor at Eastern Kentucky University, being a strong voice in the 70s for protection of the Red River Gorge, years as Commissioner for the Department of Natural Resources, he is an author and now the recently retired chairman of the Kentucky Heritage Land Board -- the group that administers "Nature's Finest" license plates. Dr. Martin reflects on a lifetime of helping to keep our Bluegrass State green...and on what's next.
