I’m excited to share the launch of the Rhode Island Sustainability Network with my collaborators, Emma Wilbur and Amy Knight, a new initiative created to connect college students, recent graduates, and emerging professionals interested in sustainability, environmental work, conservation, and related fields across Rhode Island. The goal of this network is to help students explore career pathways, build meaningful relationships, and learn directly from professionals working in areas such as corporate sustainability, consulting, conservation, government, nonprofits, and community-based environmental work. Through our LinkedIn community and future speaker events, we hope to create a space where students can connect with one another, gain insight into the many ways sustainability is incorporated across industries, and begin building a strong professional network here in Rhode Island. If you are from Rhode Island and a current college student studying or interested in sustainability, environmental science, conservation, climate, public policy, or a related field, we would love for you to get involved. Please join our LinkedIn page linked below, where more information will be provided! https://lnkd.in/ewZzNd3x Please feel free to share this post with other Rhode Island students who may be interested!
