Jan 7: Fresh Air at Phipps with the SWPAQP

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's 8-part series on air pollution in our region was an insightful look at several aspects of our air quality. Now you have a chance to meet the authors, Don Hopey and David Templeton, at the 15th Anniversary Annual Meeting of the Southwest Pennsylvania Air Quality Partnership. The authors are the feature presenters and will discuss their articles. The meeting is this Friday, from 8:15 AM to 12 PM at Phipps Conservatory, and includes breakfast. Please click here for more information and registration details, and see the GASP website for links to the articles and comments on them by the Group Against Smog & Pollution.


8:15 a.m. - 12 noon at Phipps Conservatory's Botany Hall. RSVP required.

Dr. Maren Leyla Cooke
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States
Maren Cooke is a planetary scientist by training, but now concentrates on environmental education and activism on climate, air quality, plastics, food, and justice. She serves on the board of GASP, 350 Pittsburgh, PASUP, and ReImagine Food Systems, and works closely with other organizations including CCL, Climate Reality Leadership Corps, Sierra Club, Grow Pgh, Transition Pgh, CMU’s Institute for Green Science, and the City of Pittsburgh. She volunteers as an Urban Ecosteward, a Tree Tender, and a Master Gardener, and co-founded a nature education program and a school garden at a local K-8. She has helped create science curricula and train teachers, and has taught physics, astronomy, environmental science, and permaculture to people of all ages. She has operated an urban microfarm, supplying organic produce to a local restaurant and a food pantry and garden plants to the surrounding community, and has been rebuilding her family’s home as a demonstration site for green building and green living. Maren also organizes and hosts Sustainability Salons, a monthly environmental education forum and community gathering now eleven years running.
