VIS Summer camp guest. Yesterday at VIS we had a special guest – Mr. Anastacio Juras, an environmental scientist for the Brazilian state energy company studying environmental impact of hydro electrical power station dams on the environment.

The kids asked the scientist many different questions about his life in the rainforest and were happy to remember what they learned during geography and science classes.
