New Beginnings
Hello and Welcome to the new and exciting home of the Green Floridian Blog. I suppose I’ll start by introducing myself.
I’m Becca, a student at USF and part of the Green Floridian. I’ve been studying Environmental Policy for a little over a year but have been gardening in Florida for 3 years now. I’ll be updating the blog with information that I’ve been learning in class and in the yard. Some beginning topics should include:
- Weekly Herbs and Uses
- Weekly Invasive Species, both plant and animal
- Urban Farming (a personal favorite)
- Ocean Trash
- Dredging
- Political changes
- Organic gardening and Victory Gardens
- Interesting and thought provoking material learned in classes along the way
My goal is to share my journey of learning about our environmental impacts and simple solutions to start turning our generation into one that thinks about what it’s doing to the environment. It’s not all about lobbying government to create green programs, its about solutions that can be found in every home and each community.
However, because of my ties to Florida, 99% of my portion of this blog will be dedicated to issues that Florida is involved in. For example, as much as I may want to discuss the huge problems of overpopulation in India, that will not happen in this blog - We may, rather, discuss the overpopulation of Pinellas County
