Letter: Trump’s Election Stirs Concern for Our Environment
|
Dear Editors of the NewCanaanite,
As a college student studying Political Science and Environmental Studies at Lehigh University, I have become acutely aware of the issue of climate change. After Donald Trump’s recent election, however, my concern for our planet has only grown. This is perhaps compounded by the fact that I took a class in environmental policy this fall, which emphasized the importance of legislation to bring about positive change. For this reason, I wanted to share my initial reactions to Trump’s win over Hillary Clinton. After realizing Mr. Trump’shistorical victory early that morning, I groggily looked out my windows at the familiar trees.
