Listen "Sergio Cahueque"
Episode Synopsis
As a boy, Sergio grew up playing soccer on neighborhood streets in Guatemala City and also got to release baby turtles on the Pacific coast with his Boy Scout group. His love of nature only grew stronger when he attended College of the Atlantic ('17) where he focused on International Environmental Policy and the humanities. Since 2018 Sergio has been an Organizer for the Environmental Health Strategy Center in Portland, ME. He works with outreach and education around public health issues like arsenic in well water. Arsenic is naturally occurring and impacts one in six wells in Maine. He also supports legislation that can help rural Mainers to test and fix wells with arsenic in them. If you have a story to share or a question about well testing you can reach Sergio here. Music: "Ice El Hielo" by the Mexican-American band La Santa Cecilia.
