Comfort Ajiboye

"My experience in Mexico City was such an eye-opener in seeing cross-cultural translation of environmental practices. As someone who saw themselves as environmentally conscious, this trip enabled me to better understand how our little everyday habits affect how we interact and affect our environment. Despite it seeming like a problem out of an individual's control, this trip has empowered me to know the significance in simply educating oneself and practicing important concepts such as composting from my very home. I encourage everyone to take a step out of their comfort zone and challenge themselves through these trips to grow in becoming an active citizen."
