These diverse experiences were vital in shaping his idea of enabling systems of change that address climate change through community action, science and storytelling.At the UCSB’s Bren School of Environmental Science and Management, Meet is specializing in Coastal and Marine resources management in order to shape and realize his vision to nurture an environment of increased capacity to allow bottom-up policy and governance transformation through community-led conservation at the nexus of marine ecosystems and climate justice.
