Skills & Experience

Environmental

Availability & Capacity

I would like to volunteer for a one time special project., I would be willing to commit to serving on a POA committee.

Description of Experience

I have managed an environmental non-profit for 28 years, which I founded when I was a Political Science professor at Stetson University in Florida teaching environmental politics. The organization works primarily in Central America and is focused on education and tree-planting: The Alliance for International Reforestation, Inc. (AIR). See https://www.AIRGuatemala.org for more information. My experience and competence would be in public speaking about Climate Change and other environmental issues; and organizational skills. (I also host volunteer trips to Guatemala each June.)


Past Projects

Since I am the primary fundraiser for AIR Guatemala, giving speeches and writing numerous grants, I can say that the significant outcomes have been substantial: 5,000 families trained in Sustainable Agriculture; 880 efficient stoves constructed; 40 scholarship students; and over 7 million trees planted in Guatemala and Nicaragua. AIR, Inc. was recognized by CNN Heroes in 2011; the UNFCCC Momentum for Change Award in 2013 in Warsaw; and the UN Equator Prize in 2017 in New York.
