Description
Professor Eric Olson teaches at the Sustainable International Development Graduate Program at Brandeis University. He is a broadly trained ecologist with a PhD in evolutionary biology and ecology, specifically in the ecology of "tri-trophic" interactions: host plants, the insects that feed on these plants, and the wasps, birds, and other predators that feed on those insects. In addition, Professor Olson holds a Masters in Forest Science, with a focus on the design and management of tropical parks and conservation areas. He teaches, among other things, courses in water & sanitation, climate change, ecotourism, environmental impact assessment, and environmental health.
If you live within the West Boston area, or have a family member who does, this is the perfect item for you, or a loved one. Towns in West Boston include Newton, Waltham, Weston, Needham, Watertown, Brookline, Somerville and Cambridge.
Of special note - in order to make these compost containers last a decade or more, Professor Olson uses cedar uprights to ensure a long life-span. The cedar comes in 1 x 1 pieces, and about nine of them are needed, about 3 feet each, or about 30 feet total. The cost is about $70 for clear (knot free, this means stronger). This expense must be covered by the winning bidder.
