He is the host of the podcast What About Water?"I'd like them to think that we're all stewards of the Earth and the environment, and we're all, compared to earth's history - which is over four and a half billion years old. we're just here for a short while. And that it's important that we think of ourselves as stewards of intergenerational knowledge. And so just like I pass on this knowledge and my experiences to students and, through discussions like this, I want to empower our young people, to do the same. And also, if you are interested in the environment today, there are so many entry points and so many more jobs available than when I was in college. So it is green technology, blue technology for water, anything related to sustainability...so many more opportunities. So go for it and remember to pass on your knowledge and your stewardship values to the next generation."https://jayfamiglietti.comWhat About Water? podcast with Jay FamigliettiTwitter @WhatAboutWaterGIWS https://water.usask.cawww.waterplan.comwww.oneplanetpodcast.orgwww.creativeprocess.info
