About the Author
Stephanie Bearce grew up on a farm in Kansas where the skies were blue and she never saw the fog of pollution. Then she moved to a large city where there were lots of cars and very little public transportation. On summer days the skies were often hazy and gray from smog. Bearce became interested in learning how to help clean the environment. She worked as a teacher and education coordinator at Missouri Botanical Garden, where scientists research how plants and humans can help the earth. She learned about alternative fuel sources for homes and cars and worked to teach adults and children. As a science teacher, she worked with students to research science fair projects that show the benefits of alternative fuels. In the future Bearce hopes that hybrid and electric cars will become a normal form of transportation and that smog will be a distant memory for all people.
