Prepare Notes

Outline your response to the prompt in the box below. Then, write a few questions to ask your peers to better understand their environmental outlooks.

I bring a variety of experiences, attitudes, and perspectives when considering environmental science issues. Firstly, my experiences living in both rural and urban environments have given me the opportunity to see firsthand the various environmental challenges faced by different communities. Additionally, I have been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to travel and see the impacts of environmental issues on a global scale. These experiences have fostered within me a deep appreciation and respect for the natural world and a desire to protect it.

In terms of attitudes, I am strongly motivated by a sense of social and environmental justice. I believe that it is our responsibility to be stewards of the planet and to ensure that future generations have the opportunity to enjoy a healthy and sustainable environment. I also believe that addressing environmental issues requires a holistic and intersectional approach, considering the impacts on both human and non-human communities.

As for perspectives, I approach environmental science issues with a scientific mindset, valuing evidence-based decision making and a willingness to consider multiple viewpoints. However, I also recognize the importance of incorporating indigenous knowledge and the perspectives of marginalized communities into the conversation.

Questions for Peers:

What experiences have you had that have shaped your environmental outlook?

What values do you prioritize when considering environmental science issues?

How do you approach environmental issues from a scientific perspective?

How do you incorporate the perspectives of marginalized communities into your understanding of environmental science issues?
