Juneau’s pandemic journey has been full of twists and turns, and the emergence of the Delta variant of the coronavirus has thrown the community yet another curve.
On Wednesday’s Juneau Afternoon, a conversation about how to navigate these latest threats to health and safety – and their impact on the city, schools and business community.
Also: a project to outsmart beavers. Why the Southeast Alaska Land Trust is installing a “beaver deceiver” at Strawberry Creek. How it will help to manage flooding caused by beaver dams.
