I loved seeing everyone‘s lightning talks! I think my favorite part had to be learning what everyone‘s unique environmental passionate is. You all have such unique interests, makes sense that everyone always had such valuable contributions to add to our course this quarter!
@SamvHuss Hi Sam! I'm happy you liked my talk. :) Honestly, I don't really think so! All the new ingredients have to be approved for safety, so I think we're all good. 🌱
@allison_devane just did an amazing job with her #ENVIR400 lightning talk on the environmental impacts of face masks.😷🗑️ Allison, how do you think this issue will evolve as #maskmandates are lifted?
@SyonaNR It's actually due to the massive amount of subsidies in the US, which make the price of animal products up to three times lower than what they would be otherwise. I'm talking more about this in my Lightning talk today :)
Learned while doing some last minute #lightningtalk research tonight that the average American eats more than 320 lbs of #meat per year, *way* more than most other countries! #ENVIR400🥩😰

@_katya_roz Totally agreed! I have *so much* to say and so little time. #ENVIR400#lightningtalk projects have taught me the importance of being concise, but they've also taught me how hard it is! 😣⏱️
Also, since Sean has encouraged us to harass one another (in a good way of course), fill out the course evaluation when you get the chance this week! If we can get the response rate over 85%, we get 2 extra credit points!🤩 #ENVIR400
Hi @meatonomics! I really enjoyed your book on the economics of #animalagriculture. What do you think is the biggest thing we as individuals can do to address #CO2 emissions caused by the meat and dairy industry? #ENVIR400
I've been researching #sharkfinning and more ways we can protect #sharks! @Curly_Biologist, as a shark scientist, what are the best ways to protect these wonderful animals? #ENVIR400
