Terra on the Bench™ Studios Announces New Era of Creative Environmental Storytelling, Public Engagement, and Community-Building
Buffalo, NY — 12/15/2025 — Terra on the Bench™ Studios, a multimedia environmental storytelling platform founded by environmental scientist Christin Bratton, announced today a major expansion of its public-facing creative ecosystem, inviting writers, artists, scientists, and environmental advocates to contribute to its rapidly growing digital studio.
Terra on the Bench™ Studios delivers environmental communication through an innovative blend of science, culture, and art. The platform produces editorial content, documentary-style digital media, podcasts, original illustrations, field recordings, youth educational materials, and community-centered forums. Its mission is to expose truths, educate communities, explore nature, and oppose environmental injustice through accessible, compelling storytelling grounded in research and lived experience.
“At Terra on the Bench™, we believe science doesn’t belong behind paywalls, jargon, or gatekeeping,” said founder. “Environmental storytelling has the power to inform, unite, and push people toward solutions. We’re building a creative studio where scientists, artists, and everyday people can share their work and shape a new culture of environmental awareness.”
The expansion includes opportunities for contributors to publish articles, collaborate on podcast segments, display artwork in the Terra on the Bench™ merchandise store, participate in community forums, and develop multimedia projects through Terra on the Bench™ Studios’ collaborative network. Contributors gain personal exposure, creative visibility, and the opportunity to influence environmental conversations across a diverse audience.
Terra on the Bench™ also serves as a home for several emerging initiatives, including E3O Files—its media outlet for interviews, commentary, and investigative environmental discussions—and a suite of youth learning tools such as interactive sound quizzes, educational online games, coloring books, and character-driven environmental education.
As the platform continues to grow, Terra on the Bench™ aims to strengthen public engagement by offering a welcoming, solutions-driven space for dialogue on conservation, sustainability, environmental policy, and creative activism. The studio emphasizes cross-disciplinary collaboration, accessible educational content, and community participation as key solutions to bridging the gap between environmental science and everyday life.
