Episode Description from the Publisher

This episode originally aired back in 2022 but it recently got taken down because of a short clip of the Tayl*r Sw*ft song "Lavender Haze." This is that original episode, sans Taylor.On this episode we cover social media at the intersection of science, nature, conservation, and nonprofit work. More specifically it’s about Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, and a state agency that has leveraged social media beautifully as a way to get their word out. Our guest is Rachel Terlep was Social Media Manager for the Washington State Department of Natural Resources when we spoke, but now runs social media for Washington State Department of Transportation. Note: We had this conversation about four hours before Twitter, now called X, entered a state of crazy flux on November 17, 2022. SUPPORT THE CREATION OF THIS SHOW: seadocsociety.org/donate
