Global Environmental Policy students tackle the toughest challenges our natural world faces. Opportunities abound for our students to advocate for and contribute to positive environmental change, including experience-based learning, semesters abroad, and frequent climate and energy events in Washington, DC. Though another of many heart-wrenching decisions, the ability to turn out such an audible, rapid response was once again an affirmation of an increasingly activated public.
The subsequent days of remarkable commitments from sub-national and non-state actors allowed the discontent to be solidified into progressive action. The impressive dedication we've been seeing from bottom-up movements has given me the strength to continue navigating through an often turbulent and fragile political landscape, and I hope to continue engaging thoughtfully with this ever-inspiring work.
I attended the 11th Baku Summer Energy School in Azerbaijan, taking a deep dive into the geopolitics, economics, and logistics of the oil and gas industry.
