CA~EPA Water Quality

I wondered why somebody didn't do something. Then I realized, I AM SOMEBODY.

About Me

Hello! I am a student intern with the California Environmental Protection Agency (CA~EPA). I currently attend Both Cosumness River College and Sacramento City College, and am a Marine Biology major. This is an assignment to reach out to the community in an attempt to spread the knowledge of our negative human influence on the Environment.

I'd like to meet:

I am interested in meeting individuals with a passion, love and curiosity for nature, people that are willing to help the Earth with every ounce of energy within themselves and are not afraid to munster the courage to protect and cherish what surrounds us today. We must protect what we have left, or our children's children will be faced with nothing but stories and folklore of what true nature is.

Please, feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns in reguards to our environment and I will do my absolute best to get you any information that you may desire.

Books:

I just finished reading The Devil Wears Prada. It is an extremely addicting novel that, if given the chance, many people would enjoy. Due to classes, I am no longer able to read for pleasure and am forced to encounter a book called A Short History of Philosophy, by Robert Solomon and Kathleen Higgins . . . not too bad for assigned reading, though it IS still assigned. ^_^

Heroes:

Environmental Preservationists.
