Bard CEP and MBA in Sustainability Director Eban Goodstein on How Gen Z Is Mobilizing the World to Fight Climate Change

Gen Z is taking to Twitter and “EcoTok” to mobilize and educate around climate change. Professor Eban Goodstein, director of the Center for Environmental Policy and Bard MBA in Sustainability, believes this new generation of activists could change the equation on climate action. “I work with young people who have decided that this is the life they want to lead. And there’s no place I’d rather be,” Goodstein says. “This is an extraordinary moment in which we’re living, where people all across the world have tremendous agency to influence the course of the planet, the future of humanity, and millions of species on the earth.” Undaunted by partisan divides and political gridlock, Goodstein believes youth activists have an integral role to play in climate action.
