About me
Mark Easter is an ecologist, greenhouse gas accountant, and writer who explores the beauty, wonder, and challenges of life on the spinning blue marble we call Earth. Originally from Nebraska, Mark attended college in Indiana and Vermont, and has been fortunate to work around the globe. Since 1994, he has called Fort Collins, Colorado, home.
Mark’s life’s work centers on contributing to the body of science that examines how human decisions affect the Earth’s land, oceans, and climate—whether through food production, forest management or clearing, river damming, or urban development. Outside of his professional life, Mark is a backcountry skier, hiker, gardener, and avid reader, who also enjoys cooking for his wife, family, and friends.
