What is geoscience? With only two states requiring an earth or environmental science course to graduate high school, most people either don’t know or think it’s just about rocks. “How can we, as a field, communicate what we do better—or more effectively—to reach out to communities that are often overlooked?” asks Dr. Shelby Rader, an assistant professor in earth and atmospheric sciences at Indiana University (IU).
This question inspired her to start Earth on the Rocks, a podcast that features Rader and a new geoscience guest each episode. “Most folks in the field are genuinely passionate about what they do, and they do it because they love it,” she says. “Once you start to talk to them about what they’re doing, it’s just contagious!” Learn more on GSA’s Speaking of Geoscience™ guest blog: https://t.co/BxTnr9ZWlH
