Volunteer Experience

    Big Brother Big Sister Foundation

    - 3 years 5 months

    Children

    Mentor/Big Sister in formal program from 1998-2011, when I moved out of the area. As BBBS does not formally include long-distance participation, my "Little" and I have kept it up on our own. Being in Michaela's life as she grows from little girl to young woman has been one of the most rewarding and fulfilling experiences of my life, and she is certainly now my Little Sister for keeps.

  • Options for including land use in a climate agreement post-2012: improving the Kyoto Protocol approach

    Environmental Science and Policy

    Many pathways have been proposed for including land use in a post-2012 climate agreement.
    Several involve new accounting structures which are quite different from the rules established in the Marrakech Accords and related decisions. However, a mechanism based largely on the structure agreed for the first commitment period also has its benefits. This
    paper discusses the weaknesses of the current system of land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) accounting in the Kyoto Protocol’s…

    paper discusses the weaknesses of the current system of land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) accounting in the Kyoto Protocol’s first commitment period, and proposes a mechanism based on that existing structure, but with modifications to address the
    weaknesses.

  • New Mechanisms Needed to Address Deforestation

    Ecosystem Marketplace

    Reducing greenhouse gas emissions worldwide requires addressing all sources of emissions. This principle is
    incorporated into the mandate of both the UNFCCC and the Kyoto Protocol. While fossil fuel use is the leading
    source of global emissions, deforestation is the primary source of emissions for many developing countries,
    often dwarfing national emissions from the energy or transportation sectors. Emissions from deforestation
    comprise 20-25% of total anthropogenic emissions…

    source of global emissions, deforestation is the primary source of emissions for many developing countries,
    often dwarfing national emissions from the energy or transportation sectors. Emissions from deforestation
    comprise 20-25% of total anthropogenic emissions. Ignoring this important source only limits the potential for
    emissions reduction worldwide, and inhibits the participation of developing countries in the international effort to
    avoid dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system.
