Julia concluded her internship at the EPA this week--and it was an exciting one! President Obama announced his backing of the EPA's Clean Power Plan, which aims to cut carbon dioxide emissions from US power plants 32% below their 2005 levels by the year 2030. On Julia's last day, her supervisor took her to NIH to check out the Tox21 project robot. This is a collaboration between NIH and EPA to screen over 10,000 chemicals for toxicity. We also had one last session of hula hooping on the Plaza with her co-worker, Jen. For the first time, I made--and completely fell in love with--duck breast. So good. We also had a couple of Chipotle meals…yum. There is a nice pic of Julia's ahi tuna too!
And, in other exciting news, Loryn has agreed to take Whisper when we go to Columbus. We are so relieved.
