In this episode, we’re talking to Mimi Spahn Sattler. She is the Education Manager at Public Lab and is also an hands-on educator focusing on making environmental science and research accessible for all. We discuss the Community Microscope Kit but also some other Public Lab Projects, such as the Balloon Mapping Kit that originally started this organization. Public Lab is all about breaking down barriers of access, making science as approachable as it can be and involve everybody in this process. Towards the end we also discuss how the communities of Public Lab are familiar and inspired by Fridays For Future - an environmental youth movement which was started by Greta Thunberg.
