- What activities make GSH valuable to you?
- How would you measure the success of these activities?
- Finally and most importantly, in my opinion, how are you willing to motivate yourself and
attract other busy geophysics professionals to volunteer effectively?
Let’s see what answers we receive. The Facebook crowd is usually pretty responsive.
