[LTER-sbc_help] Hubbard Brook - Connecting Science to Policy and Practice

[Hubbard Brook Research Foundation]

 ‌ ‌ February 26, 2021 Promoting the understanding and stewardship of forest ecosystems through scientific research and monitoring, policy outreach, and education Greetings, Hubbard Brook Community! This morning I received the following message from Charlotte Harris, Constituent Service & Outreach Coordinator for U.S. Congresswoman Annie Kuster (NH-02): I wanted to share that Congresswoman Kuster used Hubbard Brook statistics on climate change during her remarks in a House Agriculture Hearing yesterday. We can’t say enough how useful it is to have quantitative evidence from our very district to point to the effects of climate change, so thanks to you and your researchers for the incredible work you do! Many Hubbard Brook scientists contributed to fact sheets and participated in briefings with Congresswoman Kuster and other members of NH's congressional delegation over the past several years. Thank you for sharing your science with decision-makers. Your work is resonating, and it is making a difference!

CLICK TO REGISTER Connecting Science to Policy and Practice Connecting science to people on the front lines of environmental decision-making is a key component of our mission. We do not advocate for specific policy outcomes, and our approach to science-policy outreach is non-partisan and equal-opportunity. Thank you for believing in this work, and stay tuned for new initiatives that link science and scientists to people and issues on the ground.
