TYLER
I’m Tyler and I live in Lincoln, MA, just outside of Boston. I am interested in film as well as marine biology. My childhood involved fishing, scuba diving, and season after season of Red Sox catastrophes (but not in 2004, w00t!). I would be in 11th grade, but I have taken my junior year off to go out into the world in order to report back to my generation about what’s going on out there. I’m excited about the A Year on Earth project because I think I can make a difference in the world through the films we create and post on the website.

ARSEN
I'm Arsen. I am seventeen years old, turning eighteen on Feb. 3. I was born on the small Island of Haiti. I was adopted at age 1 and a half, and that's when I came to the USA. My interests are sports(Football & Basketball), the outdoors (Yosemite, CA & the Boundary Waters, MN) and hanging out with my friends back in CALI. I hope to bring some positive change to the world and make it a better place for my children, grandchildren, and their children through the work we do on these projects. I love food, but I don't have a favorite. I know what I don't like, brussel sprouts and beets...nasty! I'm so happy to have this oppurtunity, because I'm sure it will change and mature me. (Not that Spongebob Squarepants isn't one of mankind's greatest inventions!)

JAMIE
My name is Jamie Lee and I am 18 years old. I am currently living in the state of Texas, but my past residence for the last 6 years has been in Pennsylvania. Some of my interests are; Rugby, Frisbee, Ballet, and of course the environment. I also am a published poet and I hope to be the author of many environmental children’s books. I have a weakness for foreign affairs and issues of overpopulation. Much of my passion for the environment has derived from my involvement with Earth Force, an environmental group at Pennsbury Senior High School East. One of my all-time favorite loves is seeing live music. I am currently learning to play the bongos.
