April 30 at 3:24 PMOceans are incredibly important for our climate and weather patterns. Without our oceans, we would not be able to survive on Earth. Ocean currents help to move moisture and heat around the globe, both of which humans rely on for food production, health, and all other necessary life things. One way I can help to protect the health of our oceans...

April 30 at 3:19 PMI think that's incorrect because the amount of food waste counteracts the need to produce so much food.

April 30 at 2:53 PMI researched the mountain goat and learned that they are avid climbers who are often seen on steep cliffs. They are very sure footed and agile.

April 30 at 5:03 AMIt is always great to look at the things needed to help the environment. This month the challenges reminded me that we can all do things to help. Small or large, every effort matters to keep our world clean and beautiful. Be well, safe, and leave only footprints when you wander...

April 27 at 4:13 PMMy Monday morning sea turtle nesting survey team found our first loggerhead nest in Cocoa Beach this morning! Picked up trash along the way too---not too bad during this social distancing era.

April 23 at 10:03 AMKnowing the difference between these terms helps me to waste less food and buy more consciously because I am able to determine how much food I can/will use within a certain time frame.

April 22 at 4:27 PMSpent Earth Day picking up trash on Melbourne Beach, Ulumay Wildlife Sanctuary, Merritt Island (a new spot for me), & Kelly Park on Merritt Island waiting for the SpaceX launch.
