Dr. Lowman’s latest Nature’s Secrets column in newsobserver.com:
What would we do without trees? They grow while we sleep, and effortlessly provide us with many services essential for life on our planet – from oxygen production to providing food, building materials, medicines and shade. Scientists and educators of the N.C. Museum of Natural Sciences and its new wing, the Nature Research Center, invite you to participate in a celebration of trees. Through December, watch out for some amazing tree-related science as part of a “TREES R US” theme. All free.
The Nature Research Center will announce new themes every six months, so you can experience new science activities on repeat visits to the downtown Raleigh museum.
