Episode 55: Kay McKeen of SCARCE

On a new Wild For Change podcast, we spoke with Kay McKeen, the Executive Director of SCARCE, an acronym which stands for School & Community Assistance for Recycling and Composting Education.  It is an award-winning environmental education non-profit that supports teachers, children, and the community in creating a brighter future for our planet and ourselves through engaging and accessible initiatives, workshops, events, in-person classes, e-learning, and volunteer opportunities. Though SCARCE is based in the Chicagoland area, its outreach programs go beyond state lines and extends into other countries.  SCARCE’s work also includes collaborating with legislators to initiate laws that protect both people and the planet and helping businesses and organizations adopt green initiatives.  SCARCE provides simple yet effective resources for the community to help one another and the planet. To learn more about becoming more green at home, work, or in a school system, inquire about SCARCE’s resources, or get involved, go to www.scarce.org.  Website: http://www.wildforchange.comTwitter: @WildForChangeFacebook: /wildforchangeInstagram: wildforchange
