After some follow-up on Millennials, Scott Francisco of Pilot Projects joins Ken Kinard and Mike Boyes to talk about his experience building Wood at Work, a community of practice as a force for social change. They discuss the Brooklyn Bridge Forest project, a plan for resurfacing the Brooklyn Bridge Promenade with sustainably sourced tropical hardwood from a forest community in Guatemala.
