Today’s program: speaker Ruth Leonard
Ruth and Rick Leonard and their sons lived in China for three years where she and Rick taught English to university students. After the family returned, Ruth kept returning — until recently. Just a few days after Earth Day, Ruth will describe for us the significant air pollution in China. We’ve all heard in the news how bad it can be, but Ruth has lived with it and has a great story to tell about its impact on both Chinese and American families.
