Day 1As a weather enthusiast I have always stayed up to date on weather patterns since I was a child. At one time I planned on being a meteorologist! My dream of becoming a certified storm spotter with the national weather service happened earlier this year! As a trained storm spotter I volunteer my time to help locate and inform the national weather service on what I'm seeing. We act as the eyes on the ground because the NWS can only see radar. Trained storm spotters save lives!
A warming climate is causing natural disasters throughout the world to increase in power...No matter where you live a disaster can effect you and I encourage you to have a survival kit in your home and car. Also remember to include your pets as well! To all worldwide who have been impacted from drought, hurricanes/typhoons, tornadoes, flooding and more I pray for you.
Day 2Today I'll talk about the importance of TREES!
They provide the air we breath, habitats for animals, provide shade, large forests can influence weather patterns resulting in more rain, fight flooding, block wind, refill aquifers, keep dirt in its place, muffle noise pollution, feed us, give us medicine, raise home property values, create memories, and more. The most important power trees offer to the world is that they absorb co2 from the atmosphere and turn it into oxygen. This means trees are one of our greatest allies in the fight against man made climate change.
The tree pictured here is over 250 years old and shows where native Americans carved out the bark for medicine basketry, construction, and would also eat the the sweet inner bark of this specific tree, the Ponderosa Pine.
Day 3ALWAYS remember to keep nature beautiful! Please dispose of waste properly and remember your reusable water bottle!
