I am a second-year college student at Duke University passionate about environmental and social justice. As a member of the young generation, I am motivated to make a change so that my generation and the generations after me can enjoy an egalitarian world. I believe that many of the global issues we face are due to the spread of an economic system predicated on greed and individualism, which has lead to vast inequality and environmental degradation. I am motivated by the belief I hold that just because things are the way they are, this does not mean that this is the way they should be. It is my goal to get our world closer to what I think it should be. We need to start rethinking the role of our economy and how it can be changed to operate within the limits of the environment and how it can do so while promoting social equality and respect of all species that inhabit the Earth.
