Loren McClenachan, the Elizabeth and Lee Ainslie Associate Professor of Environmental Studies, and three of her senior environmental studies students collaborated on a paper published in the journal Spire, the Maine Journal of Conservation and Sustainability. The paper shows that even though “students associated the current state of the environment with more negative than positive emotions, the Maine environment was perceived more positively than that of the globe.”
