Anne Koschmider , your stories are breaking my heart, but at the same time I love the observations and reflections you are making. They are very concrete and specific, as well as relevant to the lives of every-day people doing every-day things. These are great examples that should be extremely accessible during discussions with students and other adults.

It feels like just yesterday. I will never forget jumping in the truck with my dad to go help my uncle tear his house down to studs in LBI. We had to get ID'd by troopers on route 72 before we got to his house. The looting had been so bad. It was the most dystopian experience of my life.

Mike Skomba Thanks for the mention of the AMNS in NYC! Their Earth Day 2023 video is really good and used the Net Zero term that the OER Curriculum uses!
