I had to research the topic, conduct interviews, and figure out the ideas related to citizen science that I wanted to cover. I don\u2019t have any journalistic experience, so all of this was entirely new for me and I was quite nervous. After all, my article is published on the website for people all over the Great Lakes Region, and really anyone in the world, to read . Still, I think it turned out well in the end. Everyone I interviewed was super friendly and passionate, and I really learned a lot about the history of community science.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I wanted to encourage people to get involved through my writing, but one thing I learned was that the people I interviewed and their quotes should be the vehicle for doing this, not what I come up with. I was really honored to interview Raquel Garcia from Southwest Detroit Environmental Vision for my story, and she was so passionate about people getting involved and joining the environmental movement. I wanted to make sure her passion, and the passion of all of the people I interviewed, shone through in the interview. After all, they are the ones contributing to scientific research and a healthier environment. I\u2019m just the one who gets the honor of writing about them and sharing their stories with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re interested, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatlakesnow.org\/2021\/06\/great-lakes-everyday-people-science-public\/\">here<\/a> is the link to my article.
