*Coming up activity of the club:

We will be hosting a booth at Earth Day Dallas on April 20th-21st from 10 am-6 pm at Fair Park.

Stop by the festival to see several academic booths presenting their efforts to educate about sustainability, several different product booths selling sustainable goods, and a variety of companies showcasing their goals of future sustainability.

I will be putting pictures up of our experience next week!  

*On April 8th, the club Skyped with the Oakland-based "Back to the Roots" company:

"Back to the Roots" promotes sustainable garden products for the individual consumer, hoping to get more people growing their own food in their backyard and kitchen!

The club was able to connect with Jasmine Jackson, The Back to the Roots Community Happiness Guru.  We discussed perusing a career in sustainability related fields and learned about the lifestyle this company promotes!

Here are some pictures of our most-interesting talk with Jasmine over Skype!

Thanks Jasmine for all your great knowledge and willingness to promote sustainable living among the youth and educational systems!  We loved meeting you and look forward to working with you in the future! Thanks Back to the Roots for being so accessible as well!  Great company with a great mission!
