Talk:Paul Stamets

While Paul Stamet's lecture focused on his work as a mycologist, the parts of his lecture that made the biggest impact on me focused on broader concepts involving life and environmentalism. His respect for nature and complex organisms like micellium and large fungi show his reverence for the creative power of the environment, and the power that these organisms hold in helping the environment. The fact that he is not a PhD in a lab, hunched over a microscope, but rather an avid hiker and explorer makes his work glow with a real, contagious passion for helping the environment. -Kat
