PAYING ATTENTION
Kericho, Kenya
|
I remember the day I began to think I NEEDED to get to Kenya. I saw a segment on a local educational channel. It talked about climate change and the ways it was affecting animals. I knew this was a question that was at the heart of Dr. Pascual's research, so I paid very close attention. I had heard a lot of it before ... but watching all the information come together in one show was overwhelming. I know I can't save the world. But I can try to get one story out there, can't I? |
ABOUT ME
My name's Lindy and I'm glad you stopped by. I'm a junior in college, visiting
Kenya this mini-mester to try to get a handle on a question I've had for some
time. Everyone always talks about climate change and what's happening to our planet.
But what I want to see is some solid scientific proof. And I think I've found it.
