Digital Collab #4: On writing with purpose

The target audience for my products is aimed at future environmentalists in Madison County that may want to know more about ways they can get involved in the care and stewardship of their Earth. If I was a young, aspiring environmentalist, I would want to be exposed to people and stories which I can use as models for my own life. I think that personal stories are something that give a human face to environmentalism. My goal with this project is to not only tell the work and history of these organizations, but to also highlight the people who work in them. By seeing people in environmental science, policy, conservation, and education, I as an aspiring environmentalist would be able to find ways and mentors as I grow. I wish that I when I was younger were more exposed to environmentalism; that could have been something that I would have tried to work with more if I was exposed to it further.
