From Sun Journal:
Meg Lowman, director of the Nature Resource Center — the new wing of the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, is traveling across the state this week, meeting with different school groups to raise awareness about the 24-hour opening of the new wing April 20-21.
Earlier this week, she was at Tryon Palace, visiting with elementary school students from Craven County.
Her trip is meant to instill a love for science in the state’s youth.
Lowman is a pioneer in the science of canopy research and has written two books on her experiences in treetops around the world.
“The whole goal of the Nature Resource Center is to show the public how we know what we know about science,” she said.
