Welcome!

Growing up with two parents who are environmentalists (one works for the Hudson River Estuary Program and the other for the Nature Conservancy) meant that talking about the environment happened a lot in our family and happened everywhere, the dinner table, when I went to their offices, driving to and from daycare (hence the title of the blog), etc. This also meant from a very young age I was interested in the environment around me and how I and others affected it. This blog is going to consist of me trying to combine my interest in environmentalism with my love of history (because now matter how hard I try it's not going to be able to be kept out of the discussion- I am a history major after all).
