Hello! My name is Elena Brown and I’m a writer for The Chatterbox. One of my passions that not many people know about is learning about the environment and how we can help maintain it.

I’ve grown up being outside and attribute some of my happiest memories to nature. For this reason, I have always tried my best to protect Mother Nature and educate myself on how to be environmentally conscious to ensure a lasting ecological future for generations to come. 

However, I’ve noticed that it can be very confusing in terms of what we can do. Everything seems to have its drawbacks and the wording surrounding environmental literature is often unclear.

For this reason, and in honor of Earth Day on April 22, I will be sharing one “Daily dose of green” every day during the month of April. Topics may range from recent advancements in sustainable technology to how you can help the Earth, or everything in between. 

I’m also open to whatever my readers may be interested in learning about. If there’s a certain subject you would like me to discuss, shoot us an email at [email protected] or DM us on Instagram @whhscbox. 

Now, I am by no means an expert in the environment, but I value integrity above all else and am committed to presenting a well researched, unbiased outlook in these areas. If you ever feel like I misrepresented something or simply have a different perspective you would like me to share, do not hesitate to reach out. 

I’m looking forward to a month full of green and expanding our knowledge together!
