Dr. Amy Snover recently sat down with UW News to reflect on her 20+ years at the group, what she’s most proud of, and share her thoughts on overcoming hopelessness in the face of climate change.

“No matter what you do, or what your skills are, you can have a role in shaping that future and thinking about how we prepare for and reduce climate change. Early on it seemed like you had to be a scientist or an engineer to have a role in this issue, but that’s not true at all. Everyone is implicated in building a resilient society, by which I mean: everyone is responsible, and everyone has something to give.”
