As an environmental science major at the University of Maine, I have a focus on sustainability and natural resources management, which has led me to join the fight to mitigate climate change by protecting our lands and waters. Climate change is affecting all of us, but Maine is suffering more from its impacts than many other states. We need to commit to protecting 30 percent of our lands and waters by 2030. Sens. Susan Collins and Angus King can champion this issue by cosponsoring the “Thirty by Thirty Resolution to Save Nature” in the U.S. Senate. ~ Michaela Wright, Orono
