Dispatches from the Youth Climate Movement
I sit here watching the electoral votes pour in and the crowds in Chicago chanting for Obama. We are witnessing a very historical moment. At 10:30 PM EST, CNN has likened the youth movement to the Civil Rights movement. “But this is not an outward protest; the youth are changing the movement from within.” Keep it up guys and girls. Our voices are rising.
Summer Rayne is an entomologist and environmental scientist by training. She's worked on issues ranging from mine reclamation to sewage sludge. In 2000, she slung her hiking boots to her travel pack and embarked on a journey of cause-related modeling to push sustainabilty through fashion and the mainstream media. She travels the world working on sustainable development programs, helping highlight innovative initiatives, consults on sustainable business, and rocks the runways for eco-conscious designers and companies. Keep an eye open for her on Discovery Network's new channel, Planet Green launching this June 2008.
