Love me some local ice cream now that I'm no longer living near Howling Cow in Raleigh.
Want local ice cream? North Carolina A&T is planning a creamery at its farm as part of a $13 million investment into an urban community food processing complex. bizjournals.com/triad/news/2…
Applications to be a part of the inaugural National Environmntal Youth Advisory Counsil close tomorrow! I have applied and wanted to make sure others knew of this opportunity. epa.gov/education/national-e…
I am excited to share that Blue Glacier: Then & Now has been submitted to 5 film festivals across the country including:
@nyWILDfilmfest

Stay tuned for more updates!
And it starts with accepting that there is no *one* solution that will solve everything. It might be expensive, but it's certainly less expensive than rebuilding society in a post 1.5° C world.
Hey NC scientists friends! At @moreheadplanet part of the NCSciFest, I run a program called SciMatch that connects STEM professionals with middle school classrooms in April every year. If you want to visit a middle school classroom next year, DM me! ncsciencefestival.org/SciMat…

This is why environmental education is so important. There have been so many proven benefits of taking kids outside early in their life and often. Both for psychological and physical health.
