Engineering for solarpunk futures

Engineer working on climate change. I want to use my skills to make projects real, have a net positive impact on Earth and encourage climate action in my communities.

In September 2027 I start the MSc in Cleantech Innovation at Imperial College London; meanwhile, I am looking for cleantech projects and roles.
