Sustainability Now! | 400th Show! | Carolyn Waters | Environmental Education | 12-23-24

To mark the 400th edition of Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, is delighted to sit down once again with local environmental educator, researcher, and consultant, Carolyn Waters! Gather ‘round the hearth as we catch up with Carolyn and her current pursuits, including: teaching an internship class in Bellarmine University’s Department of Environmental Studies; delivering a workshop on environmental education and natural history interpretation at the Association of Nature Center Administrators summit; publishing an article on exclusionary narratives in the field in the Journal of Environmental Studies and Sciences (https://rdcu.be/dGOKX); submitting two applications for EPA community change grants with Origin Park in southern Indiana; touring a permaculture-style agave farm in Oaxaca, Mexico; reflecting on past and present experiences in intentional community and how that informs resiliency; experiencing the Givaudan explosion and ongoing aftermath in her Clifton neighborhood; and growing chickens, veggies, and fruit trees at home. As always, our feature is followed by your community action calendar for the week, so get your calendars out and get ready to take action for sustainability NOW!
