\"Jablonski-new\"I\u2019m an ecologist, educator and pastoral minister in Dayton Ohio where I direct the Marianist Environmental Education Center<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em>MEEC stewards the 100-acre Mount St. John nature preserve and partners with environmental, governmental and faith organizations in our mission of \u201cRestoring communities of Land and People\u201d through ecological restoration, service learning and education. I am also a part-time faculty at the University of Dayton on the Sustainability, Energy, Environment initiative<\/em><\/a>\u00a0staff and teach courses in Ecology & Religion.\u00a0My Doctoral studies in Plant Physiological Ecology\/Global Climate Change at McGill focused on plant reproductive responses to elevated CO2<\/sub> and Nitrogen, and as an Ohio State post-Doc I conducted meta-analysis on seed quality responses.<\/p>\n

Bridge-building between science and religion has been my journey.\u00a0My BSc in Plant ecology led me to boreal forest community studies and park-interpreter naturalist work in my native land of Manitoba Canada.\u00a0I fell in love with the Sacred One I encountered in nature and the Marianist community<\/a> spirit and became a Sister. After my Biology Masters in Plant Physiology, I completed a Masters in Religious studies, focusing on ministering to the whole person of the scientist and our service role in the world.\u00a0Over the past two decades, faith communities have awoken to the moral responsibility of earth stewardship and impacts of climate change.\u00a0My background has prepared me for outreach in Ecology, Spirituality, Justice and environmental education including coordinating Ohio\u2019s first Interfaith Climate & Energy Campaign, working for the Union of Concerned Scientists<\/em><\/a>\u00a0in Climate Change, Energy and Public Health.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been an ESA member since 1991, and delight in working with ESA colleagues in growing our\u00a0Environmental Justice Section and Speakers\u2019 Bureau to faith communities.\u00a0I\u2019m the Outgoing EJ Section Chair and serve on ESA\u2019s Education and Diversity Committee and am passionate about integrating justice concerns into our work as ecologists and developing our partnerships with other communities.<\/p>\n
