Trinity Western University students Sarah (a CSCA student member) and Rea pose with Katharine Hayhoe (Fellow of the American Scientific Affiliation) at COP27 last month.Sarah writes: "Last month, I attended COP27 as an observer in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt. This was a life-changing trip for me spiritually, culturally, and in my own climate activism. Culture: I’m half-Egyptian and thoroughly valued the kindness that I experienced from the local Egyptians. Going to Egypt has been a life-long dream of mine, and I am excited to eventually go back one day. Spiritual: I attended COP27 with Christian Climate Observers Program-CCOP and they did an amazing job of incorporating our Christian faith into each debriefing group session. Of course, I learned so much about climate science and policies at COP27. I heard from people all around the world share about climate initiatives within their country. Towards the end of my trip, Dr. Katharine Hayhoe and Bill McKibben joined my team for dinner on the Red Sea. I had read Dr. Hayhoe’s book, Saving Us: A Climate Scientist’s Case for Hope and Healing in a Divided World, in preparation for a book review I was going to write for my physics class. I am thankful for the experiences I got to enjoy while in Egypt, and I am hopeful for the work that is going to be accomplished towards a better future for everyone." ... See MoreSee Less

I had the privilege of meeting climate scientist @katharinehayhoe in Sharm El-Sheikh for @cop27_egypt. I had read Dr. Hayhoe’s new book about climate change (#savingus) and was working on a book review of it for my physics class. I couldn’t believe I was meeting the author during my trip to Egypt! She also has a TED talk from 2018 titled “The most important thing you can do to fight climate change: talk about it.” She is a great communicator on climate change and I recommend that you look into some of her work if you’re interested in learning more.
