The L'Aquila, Italy Earthquake

This is what I'm talking about...


This past Friday, Mercy College held an Environmental Consortium for students contemplating a “green” future and desiring a career with sustainability in mind.

            Universities and colleges within the Hudson Valley were invited to participate in this student summit, where Kevin Doyle, Principal of Green Economy, opened the gathering with a pep talk about becoming active in our globally distressed situation. “This is not an option anymore, it’s not an option not to know [that] we need to take actions that are needed to be taken,” says Mr. Doyle.

The participants were able to mingle with exhibitors as well as each other, plus spend some quality one-on-one time with Mr. Doyle, a fountain of green ideology. “The process of six or seven billion people changing little things in their life isn’t going to do it, it needs to start at a large institutional level, with systems being set up to where these things aren’t allowed anymore, where legislature is written in to solve problems. One isn’t allowed to choose whether or not they’d like to commit a felony, it should be impossible to be allowed,” Mr. Doyle explains.

            Funneling students into eco-friendly occupations—as opposed to encouraging a light bulb to be switched or a power strip to be unplugged—enables change on a much grander scale. To introduce career-bound students to different possibilities in the green work force benefits not only the employers and employees, but also everyone in existence, while concerned, collegiate problem-solvers are getting more and more anxious to save the world.
