Good morning all,
Dr. Martin Entz recently proposed a long-term plan for transitioning Plant Science into a carbon neutral department and he wishes to hear back from us grad students.
Please read through the attached pdf file of his proposal, and once you’re done, a link leads to a very quick survey collecting your input. We request completing the survey before 10 am tomorrow morning.
Survey Link:

We currently have the following dates open:
December-01-21
December-15-21
January-12-22
January-26-22
