An introduction to the Year of Climate Action Column

This week, The Hoot is launching a new weekly column in its opinions section: The Year of Climate Action Column. This column is a way to showcase people who work on climate solutions, climate-related opinion pieces from people across campus, and anything else that’s related to Brandeis’ Year of Climate Action.

 

This week, I’ve written an article about “forever chemicals” in our rainwater. In the future, I’d love to receive submissions from Brandeis community members (faculty, students, or whoever else happens to be reading this) like you. Whether you’d like to plug one of your Year of Climate Action-funded events, give your opinions on the Year of Climate Action, or write about a Year of Climate Action event you attended, this Hoot column is for you. You can also write more generally about climate change, too.

 

If you have any ideas for or contributions to this column please get in touch with me at coopergottfried@brandeis.edu or come to our production nights (Thursdays from 6 p.m. to midnight). I created the YOCA Column to give the Brandeis community an opportunity to voice their thoughts on the Year of Climate Action (and climate change in general), so please reach out. I’d love to hear from you and give you a chance to speak your mind on this incredibly important issue.

 

Special thanks to Professor Sally Warner for her help with the creation of the YOCA Column.
