Karst?! If you don't know what karst is, it's not your fault - just the fault of the public school system. Join us to learn about this widespread geologic phenomenon, along with some tangents on how geology should be included in K-12 schools and some volcano updates.

Phenology! Cycles! Found! On! Earth! In this episode we chat about phenology, natural changes we're experiencing in our respective locations across the country as spring arrives, and the importance of studying these cycles. The audio was a little wonky in this episode, but in a different way - we'll figure it out eventually.

VOLCANOES! Our favorite charismatic geologic feature! What are volcanoes and the types of volcanoes out there? How do volcanoes form? How do volcanoes go extinct? What's up with Iceland? Listen to find out! And as a bonus Kyle shares his favorite geology movie of ALL TIME.

Amy shares about her experience as an environmental educator! We dive into our environmental education experiences as students, the difference between formal and informal education, pedagogies commonly found in environmental education, and why environmental education is important. Amy stands on her soapbox of restoration education and Kyle even COMPARES experiential education to mRNA vaccines.

Geology! It's more than rocks! Kyle leads a rousing discussion on what geology is, the history of the field, and what studying geology looks like. You won't want to miss it! Our audio was wonky in this episode too, but we fixed it in Episode 3.

We set the stage for the rest of our episodes by discussing what science is. We talk about definitions, science identity, and Indigenous science in a winding conversation. Our audio was a little wonky, and our second episode will be as well since we recorded it at the same time as this one. We plan to work on making it better in episode 3 though!

Welcome to Source to Sink! We're excited that you're here. We spend 20 minutes or so to introduce to podcast and ourselves. Looking forward to learning more with you!
