Chris B., Los Angeles, Calif. Climate hawk, fútbol enthusiast, and avid commenter.
Chris B.
“Grist has become my primary vessel for news, thus it’s only fitting I repay you for the service you provide. After a profound ‘Aha!’ moment in college about the breadth and severity of climate change — let’s call it my calling — I decided to devote my life to it. I now work as a renewable energy consulting engineer, helping clients of all sizes. As a passionate climate hawk, I am committed to activism, like the 350.org protests in D.C. I use Grist on a daily basis to stay informed about energy and climate issues both domestic and international, and I’m not afraid to defend renewables and swift action on climate — see you in the comments! :)”
Nothing renews our energy like hearing from loyal supporters like you, Chris. Thanks for devoting every waking moment, as far as I can tell, to making the world less carbon-y.
