Erica Shuhler's Groups

How are you currently involved in the Transition?: It is always on my mind; I seem to be constantly keeping track of the resources I consume and how things are so wildly out of balance in our society.

In what ways do you identify with the Transition movement? Why are you interested?: I am passionate about local food, native biodiversity, and sustainability. But I am stuck in the cycle of commuting by car to work, living in rentals, and just trying to get by. I want to get unstuck!!

Do you have particular interests, skills, talents or resources you would like to bring to Transition Whatcom?: I have masters degrees in soil science and applied mathematics. I also have a bachelors degree in chemical engineering and work as a permit engineer for the Northwest Clean Air Agency. I love chemistry, which comes through in my cooking and soapmaking endeavors. I also have a three-year-old son who teaches me new things every day.

.I have mine set for an extended automatic reply since I get so far behind.

I almost majored in soils, but back then the universities only offered the study of dead soil, as in no life, just the mineral/chemical non-living matter....so much more is now known on compost and still the mysteries of life remain!

You're welcome to call and come visit sometime...walk/work/relax or play.

I thought you were going to Montana to study biochar? you're right, I think we do have a lot in common, and I remember thinking so at the time, although I don't remember telling you. Glad to be getting to know you more.
