Pictures!
We are in need of
pictures for the ESE Institute brochure.
If you have any
environmental-related pictures that can be used in publicity materials, please
email the pictures with a quick description to Stephanie Bourgeois at
z1568028@students.niu.edu. (If you want photo credit, include your name. High
quality photos are preferred but not necessary.)
Any pictures are
welcome but we are especially in need of:
*Nature scenery
(looking for snow/glacier pictures mostly)
*Technology related
pictures (wind mills, solar panels, coal plants, oil refineries, etc...)
*Students working on
projects
