About
I've always been amazed by natures beauty and I care about protecting the environment for moral reasons. Understandably, not everyone shares this viewpoint. I hope to one day make people understand why we must protect the environment. From AP environmental science, I remember a stat, which states to replace what nature does for us it would cost multiple times that of the world GDP. Nature provides us with many free services such as pollination, soil formation, erosion control, and countless others. Humans threaten to destroy these free services, that we cannot live with ought. My goal is to change the way the world works, replacing our current system implementing economic incentive, to protect the environment.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I want to work somewhere that allows me to design more efficient ways of completing every day tasks, which also limit environmental degradation. Humans waste a great deal and destroy the environment, that we cannot live with ought. I believe through advancements in science and better logistics, we can continue to raise our standard of living, while preventing environmental destruction.
