Ecoroadtrip & Entrepreneurtrip With Shane Snipes

Today's first guest is Dr. Samuel David Brody, a veteran in the field of coastal sustainability, joined the island community of Texas A&M University at Galveston (TAMUG) in September 2009. Dr. Brody was awarded the George P. Mitchell ’40 Chair in Sustainable Coasts earlier in the year – an honor that he does not take lightly. Dr. Brody acknowledges that the position comes with a great responsibility to the residents, both human and non-human, of the Texas Gulf Coast communities in creating and strengthening coastal sustainability. “I am grateful to George P. Mitchell for this opportunity not only for myself but for the community as well,” said Dr. Brody. The George P. Mitchell ’40 Endowed Chair in Chair in Sustainable Coasts will allow Dr. Brody hands-on opportunities to research, design, recommend and assist in the implementation of methods that will help increase sustainability for the Texas Gulf Coast, from barrier islands to wetlands to sandy beaches." >>> Next up will be Karen Reagor, State Director,
