Environmental Solutions & Enhancing Literacy with Dr. Tracy Fanara aka Inspector Planet - a podcast by Collin Austin
from 2019-12-30T13:00
Dr. Tracy Fanara is proof that not all heroes wear capes. Inspector Planet is a modern-day superhero, and she’s here to educate and execute. For Tracy, finding solutions to environmental issues isn’t enough on its own.
Public outreach is hugely important, which is why she came on our show and gave Collin a little lesson in microbiology. From collaborating with NASA to helping develop her own comic, she aims high and never stops pushing. How does she do it all? Our hosts wondered the exact same thing.
