Gününüz kutlu olsun iyiki varsınız.
Hi, everybody! @nrdc Science Reporter Perrin Ireland here. I love upping rad women who kick butt on behalf of the environment, so in honor of International Women’s Day—the best day of the year—here’s a look back at some of our favorite sheroes.
Put Rachel Carson on the $20 bill!
Shannon Bennett, virus hunter.
Step aside, gentlemen. Women from around the world are leading the way on solving climate change. Never was that more apparent than in Paris—below are some of the fierce women we encountered who are making moves to stop global warming.
We got to see Sylvia Earle and Jane Goodall, two science pioneers, tell it like it is in Paris.
And, of course, the legend that is Patti Smith shared her hope with us at a concert.
I got to go to the California Academy of Sciences for the Women in Science Summit, scribing talks from Goodall and Earle, as well as many other amazing women in the field.
Turns out Sylvia Earle likes scribing, too!
And here at NRDC, there are many inspiring women leaders who light the way toward climate solutions. We’ve featured them this past year in our #womancrushwednesdayposts.
Thank you to all the women fighting for our forests, rivers, clean air, homes, and families. We are so proud and grateful for you!
