We all have a connection to water. More than the reason that it keeps us alive, we are also connected to nature and its bodies of water. Corinna Bellizzi sits down with Dr. Scott Ramsey, core faculty for Prescott College, who shares how he integrates Blue Mind science in their Sustainability Education doctoral program. They explore how our unique connection to water transcends emotional, cultural, and economic aspects. He also talks about his foundation of the Alaska Outdoor Science School that offers multi-day programs centered on social and environmental justice. Corinna and Dr. Scott also take time to remember Dr. Wallace J. Nichols, marine biologist, author, and creator of Blue Mind science, who recently passed away. Together, they celebrate his efforts that inspired both of them to take care of the environment.
