DetailsHRC Outreach
During 2008 Dr. Eylon Shamir of HRC volunteered his services with the “Water Initiative” program at the Elementary Institute of Science in San Diego. The Institute is a non-profit science and technology learning center for youth of various ages. The Water Initiative is an educational program that is geared for ages 13-15 in which the participants study and develop projects related to local water issues. Dr. Shamir gave a presentation on water conservation issues in San Diego and he also mentored a group of students in the creation of a pamphlet and a presentation that addresses past, present, and future availability of water resources in the San Diego region as well as an evaluation of various conservation measures.
