The Climate Action Adventures of Heather Bauer, Skagit River Valley, British Columbia, Canada
Heather has this to say about herself and her blog.
I am a working mother and a passionate student of the planet we live on, and of people. I’ve found a career path that enables me to live this passion daily, as a climate change and citizen engagement analyst.
This blog chronicles my adventures navigating the turbulent waters of change.. social, economic and environmental… as a connector and leader of others who would also embrace this journey. See some of my thoughts on this in my first post.
I’m playful and creative, and will express my very malleable opinion in interesting ways. I encourage you to have a conversation with me, and to share your thoughts.
