Message from our student interns: We are a group of passionate and talented students led by inspiring mentors. We hope to be a voice amongst fellow students and our neighborhood on the dangers of pollution, environmental hazards and possible remedies to forestall these re-occurring phenomena caused by both nature and man-made events. In 2 to 5 years, we hope to send a message to the global community on climate change and the way forward.
