A Brief Introduction

 

Hi there! 

If you’re reading this blog, you’re probably interested in nature or ecology. As you explore the blog, I encourage you to comment your thoughts or opinions on any post, or to message me with new post ideas, as the purpose of this blog is to start conversations and share ideas. 

As a civil engineer and a returned Peace Corps volunteer who worked in the health sector in Panama, I have a passion for fixing things and trying to improve the human condition. As someone who has always loved the outdoors, I like to make those improvements as coexistent with the natural world as possible.

 

Welcome to Roots and STEMs.

The roots are the foundation for growth and stability. They sustain life, giving us a grounding point to build up from. It’s important to stay in touch with our roots, and to take advice from elders and indigenous people especially, as they have a lot of wisdom to offer us.

The stems lead to growth and fruition. It’s important to balance the old and the new, the wise and the innovative. This is a space for encouragement and inspiration. Everyone’s thoughts are respected here, with the goal of sharing information and ideas.

This blog honors our planet Earth while collaborating with science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) principles to share ideas on ecological projects we can do around our homes and in our communities - the roots of our society.

Thank you for joining me on this blogging journey!

- Chelsea Laux
