Please provide a brief description of what you will be studying or doing while abroad.
Spanish, Latin-American (specifically Mexican) history, and environmental concerns are all topics of classes. My program is Migration and Globalization: Engaging our communities.
Why do you want to become a Green Passport holder?
I want to share any techniques or strategies that help toward sustainability that I might find during my travels.
If you consider yourself to be an environmentally and socially responsible person while at home, please explain how so (may include activities or organizations with which you are affiliated):
I attend Warren Wilson College, one of the most environmentally responsible schools in the country. As far as my activities and organizations, I´ve attended meetings of the Environmental Action Committee, but admittedly I have not gone to any of their activist actions. Before (and sometimes during) my college years I worked at the Clinch River Environmental Studies Organization and my particular group collected information on box turtles and the effects of logging on them. Again, admittedly, it´s not much. I´d like to get more involved.
