View the Recording of “Native Plants for Improving Outdoor Air Quality” Webinar with Eric Fuselier

| Wild Ones Presents

This program will go in depth into how phytoremediation can be used to improve outdoor air quality and cover a wide range of native plant species and contaminants, including particulate matter, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, volatile organic compounds, and atmospheric carbon.

About the Speaker

Eric Fuselier conducts environmental impact studies and works with civil engineers and landscape architects to minimize the environmental impact from the infrastructure projects they design. Eric chartered the Wild Ones Ozark Chapter in 2020, where he also serves as chapter president. Eric and his wife purchased an illegal dumping ground in northern Arkansas in 2014, and after cleaning it up and building their cabin with help from close friends and family, they have been working to establish native plants to replace all of the trash and invasive species that had taken over before purchasing it. Read more about what inspired Eric to become involved with Wild Ones on his Board bio.
