Host Dave Schlom visits with two time world series champion and four time MLB All Star Hunter Pence about the non profit organization he and his wife Alexis have founded: Healthy Planet Project.
With a variety of partners, Pence and his team are dedicated to community engagement and youth activation on behalf of the environment. From cleaning up beaches and planting trees in community spaces to kayaking clean up along the coast, Healthy Planet Project brings people together to make the Bay a better place.

And at the end, Hunter and one of the Healthy Planet Project's young volunteers, Salinas High School student and baseball player Dominic Marci talk about their experiences together in this engaging episode of Blue Dot.
