WHAT’S A PLACE YOU LOVE IN THE MIDWEST?

The Eastern U.P. Cedar swamps, rocky shorelines, and lake effect snow are my idea of a good time.

WHAT DRIVES YOU TO DO THIS WORK?

Love for the Midwest and the Great Lakes. Optimism that we can solve big environmental challenges. Awareness of the injustice of our continued reliance on fossil fuels. Admiration for the people, past and present, who have fought to make the world a healthier, happier place.
