My First Book!
Plant Wisdom of the Antarctic: Travel Reflections & Science Musings that Matter
Coming to bookstores near you soon!
Simply put: this book is about a revolutionary expedition to the Antarctic and the science encountered along the way.
Not so simply put: this book is about the small and large revolutionary acts that we can learn from the Antarctic. Antarctica is a place of incredible adaptation and resilience, traits we desperately need in this climate. Their strategies can be employed to improve our lives personally and as a society.
