Almost a decade ago (eek), I met with a really cool guy named Mike Knight to plan the first ever "Party for the Planet" at Brevard Zoo. Mike became chair of the event as I recall, and was instrumental in coming up with great ideas for the environmental showcase event celebrating Earth Day and the Space Coast.
Mike is program director for the Environmentally Endangered Lands (EEL) Program, a project dedicated to conservation through land acquisition and management managed by Brevard County's Parks & Recreation Department. The EEL Program protects Brevard County's unique natural habitats, while managing them for their rare, threatened, endangered, or endemic plants and animals.
A very cool job for a very cool ...

Tonight I put a call out to some of my most trusted green-minded pals around the Space Coast in order to start beefing up this blog as a central point for environmental information exchange in and around Brevard. It is my hope some of them might take a moment to write a guest blog or send some ideas for future topics.
I would also like to invite you all to take a moment to email me with your ideas, news, tips and suggestions to make this blog better.
Does your organization have a green event coming up? Post it here or email me a reminder at gayla.schaefer@gmail.com to let readers know.
Do you know of a beach in need of cleanup or a resident helping to change our little corner of the world? Let us know!
Thanks for readin...
