About this listen

Welcome to season two of What on Earth?!

In this episode, we are celebrating LGBTQ+ History month with Itati Toby Santa Maria! We talk to Itati about the field of restoration ecology, the importance of grassy biomes for our climate, "decolonising ecology" from the perspective of a Chicanx person in the US and navigating institutions as a Non-Binary person. 

Itati Toby SantaMaria studied Biology at Kenyon College in Ohio and is currently doing a PhD in Plant Biology and Ecology, Evolution & Behaviour at Michigan State University, with Associate Professor Lars Brudvig, where they specialise in ecosystems science, plant ecophysiology, carbon and water cycling.
