Earth Day Every Day! - Slithering Snakes: The Benefits of our Scaled Neighbors

What’s your reaction when you see a snake around your home? Many people’s first thought is to run, maybe even to scream! But these snakes have important roles in our ecosystems just like every other creature. Join us as we learn about Texas snakes, how to identify them and how they contribute to the natural world we strive to protect.

Our speaker, Clint Pustejovsky, is known as “The Snake Man.” He’s been working with snakes for over 50 years and has made it his mission to educate people on their importance to our planet. Since obtaining his Bachelors degree in communications, he has also authored multiple snake identification guides and hosted numerous training and educational sessions to increase awareness of the creatures that have often gotten a bad rap.

Earth Day Every Day is a series of online environmental education sessions continuing with the Earth Day theme and bringing expert speakers, special program topics, and a reminder that every day is Earth Day. Presented by Dallas Environmental Quality and Sustainability (DEQS; Green Dallas).  These topics empower Dallas residents to make sustainable choices that improve the quality of life for everyone in Dallas and the world.

This program is available online only, through Zoom. Registration is required. Zoom information will be emailed the day of the program. Emails may go to your spam folder.
