My name is Kanika Chaturvedi, I am interested in learning more about the intersection of the law and the environment here at UConn. I know there are not enough laws in our society that are helping us facilitate/mitigate the ongoing climate change problem. This is why I am committed to learning about the different types of policies that can be enacted to help ensure that we as a society can sustain ourselves in the changing environment. In the coming year at the Office of Sustainability, I hope to learn more about on-campus initiatives and regulations we have in place to ensure we are being as sustainable as possible, but also raise awareness about the lack of policies that exist at the federal/state level in regards to it.
