It’s SNAP Takeover Tuesday! 💫⁠
⁠
Meet Penelope Holland, one of our AmeriCorps members serving with the UC Davis Tahoe Environmental Research Center 💙 As the Education Programs Associate, Penelope has spent much of her service term educating the public about microplastics.⁠
⁠
UC Davis Tahoe has an interactive exhibit that discusses plastic pollution in Lake Tahoe, misconceptions about recycling, and how plastic breaks down into microplastic particles. Penelope has given tours and field trips on the topic and has expanded on this topic by creating an interpretive presentation and a second exhibit, as well as sharing information on social media. Learn more about Penelope’s service at the link in bio 🔗⁠
